Organic Pork Belly Slices
Sizzlingly tasty and super-indulgent
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.

Traditional breed pigs (like the Saddleback and Gloucester Old Spot crosses we use) are known for growing slowly and producing tremendously delicious meat. They're also know for being a bit, well, fatty. If they weren't fatty we'd be worried because it's the relationship between the meat and the fat that makes pork so brilliant to cook with and delicious to eat. While you'll definitely want lean meat some days, if you want juicy, intense flavours, remember they probably come from the fat.

Organic pork belly slices may be quite a splattery proposition to cook, but they're well worth a bit of wiping up afterwards. Pan fry the slices until they're all-over brown, then add a sweet-sharp barbecue sauce of cider vinegar, tomato puree, garlic, soy sauce, grated ginger and brown sugar. Bubble vigorously until the sauce is sticky and thick. Serve with a citrussy slaw and sweetcorn salsa. Alternatively, season your pork belly slices and wrap them in foil. Bake in a low oven for a couple of hours before serving in Japanese ramen with a steaming miso broth, noodles, bean sprouts and a soft boiled egg.
