10 years have passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake.
We sincerely pray for the repose of the souls of those who lost their lives in the earthquake.
In Kesennuma City, Miyagi Prefecture, near Ichinoseki City, Iwate Prefecture, where Tategamori Ark Farm is located, the Sanriku Coastal Road, known as the ``Recovery Road'', was opened for 7.3km on March 6th (Saturday) and is being developed as a recovery road. With the recent opening, the Sanriku Coastal Highway in Miyagi Prefecture is now fully operational, directly linking Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture, and Miyako City, Iwate Prefecture, by an expressway.
I drove with my parents on the opening day.
When I look at the newly built "Kanae Ohashi Bridge" that crosses over Kesennuma Bay and the streets of the disaster-stricken area, my heart reacts to the fact that it has been revived to this extent in 10 years since the devastation immediately after the earthquake.
Recovery and reconstruction efforts are still underway in the disaster-stricken areas, overcoming numerous difficulties.

I would like to express my sincere respect and gratitude to all those involved.

By the way, the total length of the Kesennuma Bay crossing bridge, ``Kanae Ohashi'', which was named after a public contest, is 1.344 meters. It is the longest suspension bridge of its type in Tohoku.

Now…

One day (I remember it was the month before last), our president suddenly appeared in the meat work room...
President: ``This is the meat I ate the other day...''
Me: “Yes…! (Doki!! Was there some kind of mistake?!)
President: “It was delicious (lol)”
Me: "(Relief...) Thank you (lol)"
We had a conversation like this.
I feel bliss when I hear the words "delicious" from a customer.
When I asked him about the details, he told me about the products he enjoyed.
``Tategamori Kogen pork for rump steak''
It seems like it was.
Today is that"lamp"I would like to talk about this.

"lamp"It is part of the thigh meat.
Thigh meat is divided into three main parts.
These are the ``inner thigh'', ``outer thigh'', and ``core ball''.
yeah…? ?
There's no lamp.
The lamp becomes a further part of the outer thigh.
This is the part from the waist to the buttocks.
The texture of the meat is very fine and it is the most tender part of the thigh meat.

Can you feel the fine texture of the rump meat?
(Sorry for the bad photography)
You can feel the softness just by pressing it with your finger.
This cut can be used for almost all menus, including steak, yakiniku, stir-fry, sukiyaki, and shabu-shabu.

By the way, the name "rump" comes from the English word "rump", which refers to the butt of an animal or a four-legged animal.

A soft lean part that only takes about 8 to 10 pieces when cut into steaks from one pig's meat."lamp".
(As of March 2021, it is only sold at Tategamori Ark Ranch Farm Market)

I think Tategamori Kogen pork thighs are truly wonderful.

Please come visit us.
We recommend it with confidence.

The sunshine makes it feel like spring.
I can't wait to see Tategamori Ark Farm in full bloom in spring.
All of our staff members look forward to welcoming you.
