Glatt Kosher, Chassidishe Shechita

Our meat is not just kosher, and it is not just glatt kosher, it is glatt kosher, chassidishe shechita. This designation means that the rabbi who actually performed the ritual slaughter of the animal, the rabbi who actually performed the internal inspection of the slaughtered animal to confirm it was glatt (which means perfectly healthy by a biblical definition) and the rabbi who supervised the ritual soaking and salting, were themselves Chassidic Jews.

We use chassidishe shechita meat and poultry because we feel the Chassidic supervision is more reliable. Our thinking is that a rabbi who demonstrates that he follows every Jewish law and custom, in the smallest detail, in his personal life, will likewise pay attention to even the smallest detail when he discharges his responsibility to prepare ritually proper meat and poultry for the community.
