Why dont we have one in Park Slope? We've got everything else! Did somebody just forget, or don't we Slopers eat enough to warrant a shop specialising in this?
Check out Los Paisanos (Brothers) on Smith St. at Wyckoff. They have an unrivalled (so far) selection of sausages, pork loins, pork chops, lamb, beef short ribs, game, poultry etc. I bought a load of stuff when there because the prices were very reasonable, and the choice endless. I came away with duck and Grand Marnier sausages, with some wild boar sausages thrown in for good measure, and fabulous pork loin, (which I stuffed with apples and chestnut puree) and they even guaranteed a pig's head and tripe (stomach) if I ordered in advance. (I've seen a great recipe for Pozole in Daniel Boulud's cookbook.) Well worth the trip, even for Manhattanites wondering what all the fuss is about east of the River. Highly recommended.
