100 yrs. & butcher’s well done

Send hogs and kisses. It’s a classic New Pork story, but that doesn’t make it any less of a pig deal: After 100 years of tendering loin, this Brooklyn butcher is done bringing home the bacon.

“To our patrons,” begins a heartfelt letter recently posted above a Zagat award, next to a ravioli advertisement and behind a large statue of an aproned pig in the front window of Carroll Gardens’ G. Esposito & Sons Jersey Pork Store. “April 10th will be our last day, it’s tough to say goodbye after 100 years. We thank you for your loyalty. Love, The Espositos.”

Neither The Post nor Eater, which first reported the impending closure, could confirm why the beloved hero-slinging holdout is hanging up the hogs for good.

The family-run pork chopper has been supplying Italian staples to the neighborhood since 1922, when the family patriarch — freshly immigrated from Naples — opened up shop on Columbia Street before later moving to the current location at 357 Court St.

“I have no idea how people can pay rent here,” John Esposito told Crain’s New York in 2012.
