Porchetta is traditionally a boneless pork loin wrapped in a pork belly, slow roasted with herbs for hours until the skin is super crispy.
In Italy, porchetta’s traditionally roasted and served as a street food sandwich on a crispy baguette with arugula and a garlic aioli.
At The Porchetta House, the pork belly is rolled up and cooked crispy. Our modern take combines local ingredients with global flavors.
We are breaking porchetta out of its traditional Italian roots for all to enjoy.

Porchetta is a boneless pork roast that was created in central Italy. Porchetta, whether it be alone or with a sandwich is very savory. This means that it's more salty and spicy than it is sweet in flavor. Porchetta is salted during its creation and also has plenty of spices on it for maximum flavor.
Porchetta is celebrated worldwide as an Italian culinary gem, and it involves the art of rolling and stuffing roasted pork. Nowadays, both home cooks and restaurants will typically choose a pork cut that ensures a balance of meat and fat, such as boneless pork roast.
The more traditional choice for porchetta is a pork loin, but since pork has gotten much leaner than it used to be back in the day, I prefer to use a pork butt roast instead. It's a more generously marbled cut of meat, which helps to keep the roast moist and flavourful through the long roasting period.
One of the best ways to eat porchetta, and what we Romans love in any type of weather, is as a sandwich with no other ingredients than bread and meat: the famous panino con la porchetta… The simpler the better! The bread should be strictly homemade to perfectly absorb the fat and seasoning.
