Organic Pork Belly Slices

Regular price £10.80

Really rich and rather indulgent, organic pork belly slices are delicious, succulent and hugely versatile. While you may be most familiar with pork belly in its bacon form, there's a whole lot more to this cut than just the streaky. This is a triple treat: firm, well-flavoured meat combines with melting fat and is topped by a delicate layer of crispy crackling. You can see for yourself that there's a fair ratio of fat in pork belly, but it's not gnarly, chewy fat. It's juicy and sweet, making belly a unique and distinctive piece of meat.

Pigs are famously intelligent creatures. They're playful, inquisitive, sociable and quite often stubborn. Because they're natural foragers they can thrive in most habitats where grass, leaves, roots, fruit and nuts are available. As omnivores, they also enjoy digging up worms and insects with which to supplement their diet. As it's such a core instinct to pigs, we think they should have the freedom to rootle to their heart's content. That's why we rear our pigs in an organic, sustainable system that allows them to live outdoors, following their instincts and behaving in a generally piggy manner.
