Abbot’s Butcher plant-based meats are reconnecting chefs, cooks, and customers with their food.

Each ingredient is hand selected to produce a hearty, meaty bite and bold, craveable flavors. The “Chorizo” is seasoned with Spanish smoked paprika, the Ground “Beef” gets its umami from porcini mushrooms, and the Chopped Chick’n provides a juicy, flavorful bite from extra virgin olive oil and non-GMO pea protein. These foods are made with ingredients chefs understand and customers recognize.
All of Abbot’s Butcher plant-based meats are also free from the top nine allergens as well as canola, preservatives, and natural/artificial flavors. As the cleanest plant-based meat on the market, carrying Abbot’s Butcher allows foodservice operators to cater to every kind of customer, no matter their dietary restrictions or preferences.
“As more and more consumers seek healthier options when dining out, it’s become crucial to offer foods that satisfy both taste buds and nutritional needs. Our plant-based proteins deliver on both counts, providing a simple yet delicious solution for health-conscious diners,” said Kerry Song, Founder & CEO of Abbot’s Butcher. “Thanks to this partnership with Dot Foods, we are now able to be featured on menus everywhere, helping to transform the way people eat for the better.”
