Born from the legacy of Menno Yoder and his round barn in Northern Indiana. We smoke with patience, preserving the values of a time when food was respected because it asked something of you.
Shop the LegacyLong before Yoder & Co, the smokehouse wasn't a symbol - it was how our family survived. My great-grandfather raised prize Duroc hogs like N.F.'s Pride and Orion Cherry Nell, treating them with a quiet respect that defined life on the farm. Meat was smoked slowly because it had to be.
We carry the name of my great-great-grandfather, Menno Yoder, builder of the landmark Round Barn in Shipshewana. Just as he built to waste nothing and last generations, we craft our salts to preserve the old-world farmhouse flavors. We don't measure the process in minutes, but in the drifting of the smoke and the turning of the seasons.

Ancient Himalayan salt kissed by sweet cherry wood smoke. Perfect for desserts and cocktails.
Blended with activated charcoal and smoked over oak. A dramatic finish for grilled meats.
