The Butchery

The butchery is the process of preparing meat from animals like cattle, pigs, sheep, or chickens for sale and consumption. It involves carefully cutting, trimming, and portioning carcasses into different cuts such as steaks, chops, and roasts. Skilled butchers follow specific techniques to ensure meats are properly prepared, hygienic, and suitable for cooking. The process may also include deboning and packaging. Overall, butchery combines craftsmanship and knowledge of anatomy to transform whole animals into ready-to-cook and eat products, ensuring quality, safety, and maximizing the meat’s value.
