Boston Butt Pork Burger Coming to a Meat Case Near You!

A new ground pork product is hitting the meat case! Fareway® has launched a Boston Butt Pork Burger in all store locations, made from fresh, in-store ground boneless pork butts and formed into 6 oz patties that will be sold in the service case.

The burgers are rolling out as part of Fareway’s month-long Best at BBQ promotion and will be available throughout the summer. This effort was led by Iowa Pork in collaboration with NPB and Fareway Stores to bring the product to life across 143 stores in 7 states.

As grilling season ramps up, this is a great example of how partnerships are creating new opportunities to showcase pork at retail.

Stop by your local Fareway® to check them out and support pork at the meat case! 🍔

It’s a beautiful day to…. Donate pork! 🐷

Today the Greene County Pork Producers donated over 565 pounds of chops, tenderloins and ground pork to the Greene County Food Pantry! This donation has been made possible with Iowa Pork’s Pork in the Pantry program, which gives families the opportunity to access the protein they need.

Special thanks to Fareway Stores Jefferson for packaging and boxing the product for us!

The food pantry is open every Thursday from 9:00-11:30 AM. If you are unable to make it during that time, please give the food pantry a call at 515-386-8262 to schedule a time to stop in.
