Kosher Meat Resources

Jews have been wrestling with how to eat meat in an ethical and holy way since the beginning of our history. From our shepherding forefathers to animal sacrifice in the Holy Temples, to the dominance of "glatt kosher," and worker abuse at Agriprocessors, the issues abound.

What should "Kosher Meat" mean in the 21st century? Where is the intersection between kashrut laws, Jewish business ethics, and our modern, Jewish, environmental values? These pages are meant to be a starting point for the discussion about how Jews today are observing kashrut, sometimes challenging the mainstream Kosher meat industry as they bring together their ancient traditions and modern environmental sensibilities.

This homepage for the conversation about kosher meat is a collection of many of the resources that exist related to the contemporary issues. For some Jews, eating meat that has been slaughtered according halachic laws of kashrut is a necessary, but not always sufficient criteria for eating. There are other concerns – halachic and otherwise – that people consider when making the choice to eat meat.
