Pork Cartilage Grill (Buta Nankotsu-yaki)

With a sizzling sound on the iron griddle, fragrant steam rises into the air. One bite delivers a crunchy texture from the cartilage and a burst of juicy pork flavor—this is Noshiro's proud B-grade gourmet dish, Buta Nankotsu-yaki. Pork cartilage is finely chopped and grilled to perfection with salt and pepper. It is said to have originated in the 1960s when a local shop prepared and served pork cartilage that was usually discarded; it quickly became a hit among regular customers. The Noshiro style is not to stew it, but to pound and grill it. It is guaranteed to pair perfectly with beer. This is a local soul food that brings excitement to the nights in Noshiro.
