Chef and owner Bill Miner set out to create hand-crafted artisanal salumi with time-tested old-world processes, so he planned and launched il porcellino salumi in 2015 out of the desire for his artisanal charcuterie to be made and sold in a retail store in Denver, CO.

Bill believes that the best products come from sustainably raised animals and premium ingredients, and has worked hard to build il porcellino salumi around his beliefs. The company has developed relationships with farmers, ranchers, and distributors that they trust. This dedication has created a line of award-winning products that il porcellino salumi is proud to stand behind.

Bill's upbringing planted the business's seeds before he even knew he'd be a chef. He grew up in small-town Ohio, eating fresh vegetables from his family's garden and visiting local farms and orchards. These experiences sparked his curiosity about how food is grown, raised, and consumed.
