Salame Genoa, Sliced

Smoking Goose Genoa Salame is a true classic: pork salame made in the northern Italian tradition with garlic, white peppercorns, and black peppercorns. Part of Smoking Goose’s Old-School Salumi Series, it’s a hat tip to the timeless craft of salame-making. Each batch is slow cured without compound nitrates, developing a deep, nuanced flavor and supple texture. 

This versatile salame is ideal for layering on charcuterie boards or tucking into sandwiches with soft focaccia. Dice it finely to enrich braises and stews—especially with rabbit or poultry—or enjoy it as a simple, satisfying snack with a glass of wine. Its savory, peppery profile pairs beautifully with fresh sheep and goat cheeses, as well as crisp, mineral-driven white wines.

Since 2011, Smoking Goose has earned its reputation as one of America’s most respected craft charcuterie producers. Founded by former chef Chris Eley in Indianapolis, the company sources pork from small family farms that raise animals humanely and without antibiotics or growth promotants. Their salumi celebrates Old World tradition while supporting local farmers and sustainable practices.
