Why is it called Butcher Cut?
Peppercorns are the small, dried berries of the Piper nigrum plant, which are used as a spice. They are typically ground into a powder before being used in cooking, but can also be used whole.
When they are whole instead of grinding them into powder they can be “Butcher Cut” this mean it is a more coarse cut of the pepper! Coarse ground pepper is a type of pepper that has been ground into larger, more uneven pieces, rather than being finely ground into a powder. Coarse ground pepper is often used in recipes where the texture of the pepper is desired, such as in marinades, rubs, and salad dressings. It can also be used as a finishing touch on top of dishes like soups and roasted meats, where it adds a burst of flavor and a slightly crunchy texture. Coarse ground pepper is typically spicier and more pungent than fine ground pepper, and has a more robust, robust flavor.
