The Team

Yadidya Greenberg – Owner, Shechita Instructor, Kosher Poultry Producer

Yadidya Greenberg is an Israeli born shochet, Kosher Poultry Producer, and humane butchery expert. He learned shechita and received his kabbalah (certification in shechita) from the honorable Rabbi Yisroel Landsman Z”L in the summer of 2011. He then went on to work in a kosher beef slaughter plant for 3 years. Today, along with running The Kosher Cut ®, Yadidya is in the process of opening a farm based out of Pemberton, NJ that will produce kosher meat, eggs, and live poultry products.

Rabbi Dovid Shaffier – Senior Shechita Instructor, Knifesmith, Bodek Sakinim

Born in California, Dovid learned at Los Angeles’s Yeshivas Ohr Elchonon and at Kollel Ohr Tzaddikim in Tsfas. Dovid later became the Menahal Ruchani and Halacha instructor at Tsfas’s Yeshivas Teferres Moshe and taught at Yeshivat Yushuat Mordechai in Nachliel. In the fall of 2011 Dovid trained and became certified in shechita with Rabbi Yisroel Landsman Z”L. After receiving Kabbalah Dovid worked in a kosher beef plant, eventually serving as the head shochet and bodek sakinim there. During this time, Dovid learned how to make chalofim and began teaching students shechita. This eventually led to Dovid producing his ground breaking book “Esek HaShechita , A Practical Guide for Preparing a Challif”.  Along with his work for The Kosher Cut ®, Dovid runs Shaffier Knives where he makes custom blades and provides precision sharpening services.
