Free range Pork Belly Slices

Description

Supplied by Blagdon Butcher.

We use the traditional Saddleback breed, a no nonsense pig. They produce an all round carcass that is both equally good for your roast joint of pork and to cure for hams and bacon.
The pigs are all reared outdoors which means they are free to range across our pasture land and are given feed which is low-GM and pesticide free. At night they’re housed in small groups which means they are kept at a high level of animal welfare standards and are not given routine antibiotics. This allows the animals to grow at a more natural pace, giving the muscles time to develop which creates a deeper, more intense flavour.
