Yes, Capicola is pork. The name capicola originates from 'cappicolla,' which means 'Capocollo.' It refers to the part of the pig from which this product comes.  Capicola is a pork-derived cold cut that is generally made from the pig's shoulder, though it can also be produced using other cuts of meat.  It has been described as a "coarse-grained" and "rustic" deli meat or salami, with a distinctive fatty orange rind surrounding the pinkish-red, coarsely ground meat.
