Creminelli Fine Meats

Salt Lake City heritage-pork salami, Italian-trained Cristiano Creminelli's small-batch dry-cured catalog using only heritage-breed pork.

Profile last verified May 9, 2026 · Ships to all 50 states · Rating 4.5 / 5

Our assessment

Creminelli Fine Meats is one of the few American salami producers using exclusively heritage-breed pork (Berkshire, Tamworth) raised on small US farms. Cristiano Creminelli trained in his family's Italian salumeria before launching the SLC operation, and the catalog reflects traditional Italian salami profiles (sopressata, calabrese, finocchiona, milano) rather than American-supermarket-style cured meats. Available D2C, in retail charcuterie sections nationwide, and via gift box. Direct affiliate. The trade-off versus Olympia Provisions: smaller flavor breadth and a tighter focus on traditional Italian profiles. Best for traditional Italian salami buyers and gifters.

  • +Heritage-breed pork only (Berkshire, Tamworth)
  • +Italian-trained founder with traditional family pedigree
