“Good paired with something to cut through the richness of the meat – try rhubarb and ginger”

- Riverford cooks

How to prepare

Season generously with salt and pepper and fry, griddle or BBQ for 10-15 mins until darkly golden and starting to crisp up. Or lay the slices on a baking tray and cook in a hot oven for 30-40 mins until golden. They will benefit from a final glaze with a soy-based marinade or some sticky BBQ sauce. Alternatively, you can dice and fry them as the base for a stew, cassoulet or batch of slow-cooked baked beans.

Storage

Keep refrigerated below 5˚C. Once opened, use immediately for best quality. If not required immediately freeze as soon as possible and always within the use by date. Once frozen use within 1 month. Defrost in a fridge and use same day. Do not refreeze.

Helen Browning's farms produce dairy, cereals and pulses, eggs, orchard crops and berries, as well as the top-welfare organic pork that we enjoy at Riverford. Their organic herd of 100 sows are pure British Saddlebacks - a hardy native breed that thrive outdoors, make great mothers and produce full-flavoured pork. The pigs live outdoors in family groups, with loads of space to rootle around in.
