Simone Fracassi is the man of meat. Yes, but of the good one, Tuscan from head to toe, Chianina IGP.
In Rassina, after crossing hills, woods, and vineyards, arriving at the Casentino Forests National Park, you will reach a small square where you can admire a wine-colored sign that says: Macelleria Fracassi. A vault of good things, the kingdom of Simone. The kingdom of Chianina IGP.
His meat is precious and sought after by all the greatest Italian chefs for its fineness and high quality that cannot be found in other Italian butcheries. The farm is located in the town of Cortese Michelangelo, the town of the magnificent Renaissance artist. It's also a matter of art for Simone, who has been the true ambassador of Chianina IGP for years.
With his extraordinary Tuscan flair and pleasant communicative style, he manages to win people over even behind a camera. His participation on Thursday with Clerici to explain the meat and its cuts was a mix of sympathy, passion, and great experience.
Simone is a sensitive person with a heart of gold for those who know him well, and among his activities, we cannot forget his commitment to young Calabrian breeders to give hope to a suffocated economy, with the production of the legendary cured meats made from the Black Pig of Aspromonte.
Talking about Chianina IGP means giving voice to the many breeders and butchers like him who have chosen to remain faithful to a territory, a millenary culture, and the noblest Tuscan traditions. Simone also helps consumers recognize the authenticity of such prized meat in a world where counterfeits are prevalent.
We leave you with the curiosity to try his high-quality meat and his sauces, tripe, and Chianina IGP stew.
You'll be asking yourselves... but what have we been eating so far?
Directly from Simone in Rassina, fresh Chianina IGP meat delivered to your home.
Spaghetti e Mandolino has established a wonderful collaboration with >Macelleria Fracassi. You can reserve the Chianina IGP meat prepared directly by Simone. An unmissable opportunity for meat lovers.
Here we are faced with works of art, not just simple steaks! As Simone always says: “Sure, but if you ask me only for a Chianina IGP fiorentina, I won't give it to you! What about the rest of the cow?” This is why Simone prepares two packs of mixed Chianina IGP meat for us.
Two packages, the Casentino and the Cortese Michelangelo. So not just fiorentina, but also hamburgers, knife-cut tartare, mixed boiled meat, ground meat for ragù, and steaks. One pack of 5 kg and one of 10 kg of meat packaged by him respecting the fresh line.
All reservations must be made by Thursday, and then on Monday, Simone packages the boxes and sends them off. In less than a day, they arrive at your home. You can read all the details on the product's dedicated pages. And we guarantee that Simone has wanted to give you a truly special price for this initiative!!
Simone's Delights
Macelleria Fracassi is a vault of goodness. Simone wanted to put in jars what his mother taught him. Sauces and other cooked delights produced with Chianina IGP. And here is the real Tuscan red sauce made with Chianti and Chianina IGP meat, with natural aromas from the Casentino Forests. Bay leaves, rosemary, sage, etc... Then the most succulent and traditional Nero di Chianina IGP, for the typical Tuscan crostino. An irresistible delight. For those who love offal or the white parts of the animal, here is Bianco di Chianina IGP, with an intense and ancestral flavor. The Chianina IGP stew is a dive into the ancient traditions of the Tuscan lands, spiced and hearty. Finally, the tripe. Yes, the pleasure, as Simone defines it.
And we won't add anything else.
