Bone broth is worth the hype (but only if it jiggles) — Thomas Odermatt, Butchers Bone Broth

from Farm to Future · host Jane Z.

Growing up in his family’s award-winning butcher shop in San Gottardo, Switzerland, Thomas Odermatt learned the foundations of traditional butchery and the art of succulent, tender rotisserie. From his father, Otto, a Metzgermeister (master butcher), he learned the importance of selecting the right cuts for the right purpose and sourcing only high-quality, free-range meats from trusted family farms. From his mother, Maria, he inherited the family’s cherished rotisserie recipes, a Saturday specialty that drew loyal customers to the shop.Thomas went on to earn a master’s degree in organic farming in Zürich before moving to the United States to continue his studies at the University of California, Berkeley. Immersed in the Bay Area’s emerging gourmet food scene, he became inspired to bring his heritage and craftsmanship to a new audience. In 2002, that vision led to the launch of Roli Roti, America’s first gourmet rotisserie food truck, created from a singular pursuit: making the best rotisserie chicken possible.As the business grew, Thomas found himself with excess bones and trimmings from the truck. Guided by his butchery roots and a nose-to-tail philosophy, he put every part to use. Thirteen years later, that approach culminated in the creation of Butcher’s Bone Broth, an organic, fresh bone broth that reflects his enduring commitment to time, attention, and care in feeding others. Like his rotisserie, the broth is crafted to be healthy, deeply flavorful, and satisfying.Today, Butcher’s Bone Broth is available in more than 10,000 locations nationwide, including leading retailers such as Costco, Sprouts Farmers Market, Whole Foods, and Publix.Website: https://www.butchers.co/ Instagram: @butchersbonebrothDiscountsGet 10% off delicious local farm-fresh food delivered to your door with my link for FarmMatch: https://farmmatch.com/jane Get 15% off high-quality Italian olive oil with code FARMTOFUTURE: https://shop.vignolifood.com/FARMTOFUTUREGet 40% the CircleDNA’s Premium DNA test with code JANEZHANG: https://circledna.com/premium Connect with Jane Z. Instagram: @farm.to.futureEmail: [email protected]: farmtofuture.co
