North Country Smokehouse, renowned for its award-winning artisanal smoked meats and steadfast commitment to ethical farming practices, announces that its new Organic Ground Pork has won a Men’s Health 2025 Best Foods for Men Award. Recognized as one of “50 delicious foods that will power your diet”, the ground pork was selected for its nutritional value and other factors like organic sourcing, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness.
North Country’s Organic Ground Pork is sourced from the company’s own vertically integrated farms. As one of America’s few remaining family-owned smokehouses, North Country Smokehouse oversees every step from farm to fork—ensuring uncompromised quality in every bite. Certified Humane® and raised without cages or crates, this non-GMO pork is free from antibiotics, added growth hormones and is Prop 12 compliant.
Sold in convenient 1 lb. packs, the ground pork is on shelf at The Fresh Market locations. Crafted with a balanced lean-to-fat ratio, it is ideal for everything from backyard burgers and skillet scrambles to hearty meatballs. North Country Smokehouse’s dedication to premium taste and quality has earned widespread acclaim, including Good Food Awards for its Organic Applewood Smoked and Sugar Free Bacon and Organic Applewood Smoked Ham Steak, as well as being named Best Store Bought Bacon in a unanimous chef vote by The Kitchn.
