We are sausage makers making a large array of handmade sausage the old school way. We also provide cuts of the finest pasture raised meats available.
Grace's Sausages & Fine Foods is a true Farm-to-Table concept that is based on a single guiding principle:
“Good food comes from good ingredients.”
Started in early 2016 by Chef and owner Bradley Grace—an Irish immigrant who searched fruitlessly far and wide for a pork sausage reminiscent of the ones his family bought each week during his youth from the local butcher—eventually he gave up the search and decided to begin crafting his own recipe. The work began four years ago in the basement kitchen of a cramped Brooklyn restaurant. In the years since then he has continued to build and refine his creations through insight from travel and hands on work in the passionate pursuit of all things charcuterie.
To Bradley the venerable sausage is a vessel for endless creativity that allows people to experience a myriad of flavors, both subtle and bold, all in one bite! Just as important as his dedication to traditional “old school” sausage making is his passionate commitment to sustainable and ethical farming practices. A one-time vegetarian, Bradley's return to eating meat was deeply anchored in the conviction that to be healthful any piece of meat should able to be sourced back to a happy, healthy animal who spends it's life engaged in natural behaviors in a natural environment. Hence he believes in promoting and supporting small farmers or co-op farm groups who engage in the ethical raising of animals. No feed lots. No "factory farms".
Because of these strong convictions Bradley has established business partnerships with farms that operate under the strictest codes of ethical and sustainable farming. The end result is meat that is free of antibiotics, hormones and other adulterants and vastly superior both in quality and taste to the conventional factory-farmed or "commodity" meats which are sadly so ubiquitous in today's marketplace.
