Pan Family Donkey Meat has a history of over 300 years. According to county historical records, the Pan family from Xuguantun Village, Yinji Town, Gaotang County, migrated south from within the city of Gaotang in the 51st year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty (1786 AD). By the early years of the Daoguang reign (1821 AD), members of the Pan clan had already begun slaughtering large livestock such as horses, cattle, and donkeys on a considerable scale. From the slaughtering of the animals to the preparation and sale of the cooked meat, every step formed an integrated production line. The quality of the processed cooked meat continued to improve, and the number of seasonings used in the cooking process increased from the original six or seven to more than twenty. As a result, people praised “the aroma of Pan Family’s donkey meat wafting for miles upon coming out of the pot,” which is the origin of the name “Ten-Spice Donkey Meat.” After the reform and opening up, members of the Pan family brought their descendants back into the trade. The eighth-generation descendant, Pan Ruifu, built upon the traditional secret recipes while striving for innovation, further developing the Pan family’s traditional craft. In 2007, he established the Gaotang County Pan Family Meat Products Co., Ltd. and registered the trademark “Panjia.” The company’s donkey meat is brightly colored, tender and delicious, with a rich yet not greasy flavor, and remains tender without falling apart. It has received widespread praise from all sectors of society and is sold in dozens of major cities across the country, including Beijing, Shanghai, Shijiazhuang, Zhengzhou, Guangzhou, and Harbin. The company now has nearly 300 franchise agents and over 2,000 distribution points. It has been recognized by the Office of the Gaotang County Committee as a “Gaotang County Traditional Famous Snack” and by the Liaocheng City Tourism Bureau as a “Liaocheng City Featured Tourism Product.”
