Salt & Time

DAY 2: 6-Course Butcher's Bounty Dinner Series

Ben Runkle and Bryan Butler opened Salt & Time in February 2013, creating Austin’s first Butcher Shop with a focus on local sourcing and whole animal butchery. The restaurant at Salt & Time grew organically over its first year to become a popular neighborhood joint and a destination for food lovers from throughout Texas and beyond. The menu features house-made charcuterie, dry aged steaks and a craveable burger named one of America’s Essential Burgers by Eater.com. Ben is the Luck Family Chef, curating culinary programming at Willie Nelson's Luck Reunion as well as an active participant with nonprofits such as Urban Roots, the March of Dimes and Farm Aid. Bryan was named the Best Butcher in Texas by the Texas Beef Council and is a founding member of the US Team at the World Butchers’ Challenge, competing in Ireland in 2018 and hosting and competing in Sacramento in 2020. He is a leader in education in the craft of Butchering, leading classes and training session in Austin and throughout the country.
