The Butcher’s Story

Back to our Future

From our humble beginnings in 2019, Skinny Butcher has had one mission in mind: Food should be fun, delicious, & make a difference.

And we’re not afraid of humble beginnings.

While successfully building Garden Fresh Gourmet—launched in the back of a bankrupt restaurant just outside of Detroit—into North America’s #1 brand of fresh salsa before selling to The Campbell’s Soup Company, Skinny Butcher founders Jack & Annette Aronson, Dave Zilko and Mike Griffin experienced first-hand how a partnership rooted in love and respect can positively impact millions.

So Skinny Butcher was born out of a passion for providing fantastic food that puts smiles on the faces of every member of the family, all while helping communities across the country.

Now joined by President Ryan Salapa and an incredibly committed Cleaver Crew, look for Skinny Butcher products throughout the supermarket, all permanently anchored by our “Wink it Forward for No Kid Hungry” campaign, dedicated to fighting childhood food insecurity on a national scale.

Fun, delicious & making a difference… we’d love you to join our mission.

Skinny Butcher's Wink It Forward! For No Kid Hungry

The Wink Makes You Think…

…about the 14 million children in the U.S. that live with food insecurity. Skinny Butcher is partnering with No Kid Hungry to change that. Children are our most precious and vulnerable resource. And now, with the Butcher’s Wink it Forward campaign you can help alleviate childhood hunger in the wink of an eye.

Don't take the butcher's word for it

I could never really find anything that was crispy that had flavor. Let me tell you, I am never buying another brand again. I am extremely impressed with how crispy it is and the flavor is amazing. I particularly like that I could taste sage in the breading.

These [spicy chicken breast patties] are SPICY. I am forever keeping these in the freezer now. They are delicious, and minimal processing, ingredients... I'm very, very satisfied.

As you know I only eat certain things a certain way... and I don't eat chicken nuggets. I'm just going to stop right here and say... that's much better than a dino nugget. That was honestly really, really good; I'm going to rate this a 10.

I tried your spicy chicken patties and let me tell you they did NOT disappoint!!! They were so crispy and juicy and so very very tasteful! I will ONLY buy your brand now!

Kristina C.

The chicken tenders are absolutely amazing. It's by far the best chicken that I've ever had. I can't wait to try all the other flavors and varieties that you guys have to offer as well.

Y'all's spicy chicken patty is to die for. Next time Publix has em BOGO I'm gonna buy a truck load.

Deron F.

My husband and I are obsessed! It's literally the BEST spicy chicken that we have tried and I don't think I'll be ordering one at a restaurant anymore because you guys have won our hearts (and belly). It's certainly on our monthly rotation!
