Rocket Pig

Out of Business

Description

While expansive menus have their place, there's something to be said for doing one thing—or in this case, one sandwich—and doing it right. Swiss chef-owner Ralf Kuettel has taken this motto to heart, and Rocket Pig is the proof: the pork sandwich is the star of show (with sides of slaw, pickles and potato chips and a few desserts as supporting players). Kuettel and his team use locally sourced pork shoulder that's been brined, spice-rubbed, smoked and then slow roasted to perfection.
