The lauded butcher focused on sustainable and ethical sourcing as well as consumer education and zero-waste butchery to bring about change in the meat industry.
Jered Standing, a popular L.A. butcher and a champion of ethical and sustainable meat sourcing, died last week at 44. According to a report from the Los Angeles County medical examiner-coroner, he was found dead in his home Feb. 22. In 2017, Standing opened his Hancock Park shop Standing's Butchery, which quickly became a benchmark for thoughtful sourcing as well as service.
But if you’re buying someone else’s meat and not mine — and I’m seeing that — then the pressure’s on me to look at what I’m doing, and why you’re buying from that guy.' As he set out to learn more about the meat trade and proselytize a more sustainable meat system, he was sleeping in his $500 Toyota Corolla and on a friend’s couch while he found financial footing.
