OUR STORY

4505 Meats began back in 2009 when chef and butcher, Ryan Farr, started frying up chicharrones in his home kitchen and selling them to local bars for extra cash. The chicharrones quickly became known throughout the city and endearingly dubbed “crispy clouds of porkaliciousness.”

4505 Butcher's Snacks Sausage Sticks

Hot, Hot, Hot

I purchased Jalapeno 4505 Chicharrones, (Jalapeno Cheddar flavor) to take on a road trip. These were so hot, there was not other taste to them. The crunch was there but a white powder residue was also there. Left a greasy film on our teeth and on the roofs of our moths. If I could remember where I purchased them, I would go and ask for my money back. Liked the hot flavor but I also like to have my taste back. Nothing but hot, mouth burning taste in these Chicharrones. Won't be trying these again.

Whole Beast Butchery: The Complete Visual Guide to Beef, Lamb, and Pork

Whole Beast Butchery: The Complete Visual Guide to Beef, Lamb, and Pork is great book!

My son-in-law is very pleased with this book. The pages are heavier than typical book & pictures are outstanding. This was to be a signed copy but slipped thru without signature. As an extra compliment, the company sent a different signed book & he is again very happy. The integrity of 4505 Meats is amazing. Keep up the good work & you will always have return customers.
