Authenticating Meat

A desire for tradition prompts meat lovers to turn to homemade cooking methods

Implications - While fast food barbecue is a more accessible way to enjoy seared meats, the alternative cooking methods that eateries often use tends to sacrifice overall traditional appeal. Seeking more authentic variations of slow-cooked meats, consumers are turning to homegrown recipes to ensure no shortcuts are made. A turn towards conventional methods of meal preparation reflects a need for more organic and transparent sources of consumption.
Trend Themes
1. Traditional Cooking - Consumers are turning to homegrown recipes for traditional meals as a desire for organic and transparent sources of consumption grows.
2. Booze-infused Meals - Recipes that include whiskey and bourbon are growing in popularity and provide an opportunity for brands to offer a unique dining experience.
3. Emphasis on Smokey Flavors - Smokey flavors are in demand, and recipe creators are finding new ways to incorporate them into meats by adding spices and other unconventional ingredients.
Industry Implications
1. Food - Opportunities for brands to appeal to consumers seeking traditional meals, unique boozy dining experiences and smokey flavors.
2. Agriculture - As the demand for organic and transparent sources of consumption grows, there is an opportunity for the agriculture industry to cater to consumers seeking traditional and natural sources of food.
3. Restaurant - Restaurants can create a unique dining experience by incorporating booze-infused meals with smokey flavors that feature traditional cooking methods.
