About The American Pig: Born and raised in South Carolina, Charles Lee’s formative years taught him to appreciate the finer aspects of living. One of those key points is that all good things take time. His Uncle Jay would reinforce that lesson every year when the family gathered for the annual pig-picking. Uncle Jay would show up several days before the big event, smoker in tow, and go purchase a pig from a local farmer. That pig would end up on ice in the bathtub of Charles’s grandmother’s house in Brevard, NC. At some point in the late afternoon of an early November day, after the wood fire had turned to simmering coals, the pig would find its new home on the smoker.
After college Charles found himself in Denver working for a brewery. When not behind the bar pouring beers, he would stumble into the kitchen and concoct crazy burgers and hot sauces. Then one day the industry folk started talking about a new butcher shop opening in town. The shop was going to be using whole animals that were raised in Colorado. Not soon afterward, Charles walked into that butcher shop and signed up for a class. That class would be the spark that started the adventure that is The American Pig.
Grace, Support, Love.
