June is uniquely placed between the Memorial Day and July 4th holidays.  It is a time packed with new beginnings: graduations, weddings, Father's Day.  We know things can get a little hectic, so consider letting Country Butcher make things a little easier on you.  We have a variety of new items this month:

• In the Cheese Shop....Barely Buzzed Cheese: Beehive's espresso-rubbed cheddar from Utah provides

   a earthiness, roasty-smokey spice flavor with a touch of bittersweet (as noted in Martha Stwart' Living

   Magazine, July 2010).   

•  We offer four cheese condiments from Mt. Vikos that are perfect with cheese. 

    Based on figs or apricots and olives and onions!  Enjoy!

Glazed & Roasted Figs - perfect for dessert with your favorite soft cheese or over some Woodside Farms Creamery ice cream. (going fast)

Sweet Olive Jam - all-natural complement to a cheese plate.

Apricots & Figs - prepared from sundried fruits for maximum flavor with a touch of honey & spices.

Onion & Fig Jam - good with feta, mancheyo cheddar or asiago cheese.

• In the Bakery....many customer favorites including cannoli, strudel, scones, and mini-cheesecakes

•  You've made the decision to treat dad on Father's Day with a Big Daddy Rib Steak, try

    some of our new BBQ sauces and rubs to make it uniquely your own and special for dad!

•  Stubb's BBQ Sauces are created with the understanding that barbecue brings people together. It's

   meant to take a long time, so friends can smell it and talk about it, anticipate that first savory bite and

   celebrate when it's all over. Fire up those coals!     

   We like the ORIGINAL, HICKORY BOURBON, and HONEY PECAN. 

•  New seasoning rubs from Fire & Flavor are great on pork, chicken, beef, seafood, and vegetable:

• Asian Rub - blend of soy, ginger, garlic & sesame seeds

•  If you have tried using Grilling Planks for enhancing those BBQ flavor, now give our Maple Cheese

    Planks a try.  The delicate smokey flavor is perfect for brie, cheddar and other cheeses.  Perfect for

    appetizers!

•  It's probably everybody's favorite comfort food: spaghetti and meatballs. Lidia's Pasta Sauces (Lidia

    Bastianich, host of "Lidia's Italy" on PBS) offer simplicity after a day of running around.  We offer three

    varieties:  

• Marinara Tomato and Fresh Herb Sauce (Vegetarian)
• Garden Style
• Artichoke Marinara
  

The beauty in the richness of colors in Isola Signature Pesto tell a story! The story of Italy's fresh basil, black olives, brilliant red sun-dried tomatoes, Italian cheese. No preservatives, all natural.

• Pesto Genovese - wonderful basil, but not too intense!
• Sun-dried Tomato - refreshingly tangy, yet smooth and mellow sun-dried tomato flavor.
