Identify your chosen animal, cut, and reasons for this selection.

I have chosen Pork for my blog because I never see raw pork cut in my life. I am from India so I usually preferred chicken when I was living in my home country. Pork meat is totally a different experience for me and I am so excited to identify new things in my life. In this blog, I am going to put sheds light on the sirloin cut of the pork meat. I went to the butchery shop in Brampton near to my home and I saw several kinds of pork cuts there. I did not have sufficient information about pork cuts before this blog. But now I researched on the internet about pork cuts and now I understand many useful things about pork cuts.
