Culinary expertise is definitely not lacking in Quebec and Les Charcutiers Pork Shop are no exception. Discover their sausages, rillettes, and other original creations, perfect for accompanying your everyday meals.
Established in 2013, the budding company grew fast. Spotted by Sobey’s executive personnel during a tasting event, Pork Shop sausages can now be found in all IGA supermarkets.
United by flavour diversity
The story of Les Charcutiers Pork Shop starts with Frédéric Daoust and Tommy Gosselin. In a fortunate twist of fate, the two ITHQ alumni met in 2012 while working at the same Montreal restaurant. In 2013, they quit their jobs and founded Les Charcutiers Pork Shop.
Certified, top-quality products only
The company uses only certified humane pork shoulder sourced from a local farm, free of any added fats. The flavours added to their products have never been added to traditional charcuteries before, ensuring a perfect balance between meat and spices.

Tips and tricks for serving your charcuterie Hosting a get-together? Elevate your charcuterie game by putting together a pretty and practical platter! Make sure to space everything so as to avoid flavours bleeding together, and so that your guests can easily pick and choose what they feel like sampling. The ideal serving temperature for charcuterie is between 14 and 18 degrees Celsius, if everything remains at room temperature. If you plan on storing your platter in the fridge, make sure to place it on the lower shelf. Remove from the fridge an hour prior to serving, to enable the flavours to fully develop.
