Product description
A full, rind-on cheek, ideal for slow-cooking be it with pulses and wine for a hearty braise or in the oven, the skin crisp and the meat beneath meltingly tender.
Pig's cheeks is an old fashioned ingredient that our community of chefs regard highly; thanks to the deep flavour and melting qualities of the meat.
We use Middle White and Tamworth pigs reared outside at their own pace, dry-aged in house as we believe this results in the very best pork possible, world-class in our opinion.
Do you sell just the oyster muscle?
Our pig's cheeks are a full cheek. The oyster muscle, roughly the size of a squash ball, is just the lean area of the cheek visible in the above image. A full cheek is rather different with a higher fat content and skin-on. A full cheek is approx. the size of a hand - a full palm plus outstretched fingers. One cheek is a very generous single portion but can easily feed two.
