Our Farms & Suppliers
Our organic pork comes from two partner pig farms, one here in Devon and one in Gloucestershire. Their pigs are outdoor bred and reared and spend their whole lives outside, the way it should be. They come from a British Landrace cross Duroc sow, giving lean meat with defined contrast in the joints, so we can do everything from our famous Roam & Relish bacon from the flavour-rich belly to a pull-apart, slow-cooked shoulder joint. The pigs are free to roam, wander, and forage as much as they please and are given organic feed to get those vital vitamins and minerals they can’t find from the ground. In the summer they wallow in cool mud baths and in the winter, they can snuggle up in deep beds of fresh straw. Unlike intensive farms, their tails and teeth are left unharmed. Animal welfare is at the heart of everything we stand for and these pigs lead a natural and happy life. Every cut is hand-finished, cooked with carefully selected cures, and butchered using traditional methods. From bacon to slow-roasting joints, chops, and sausages, we’re proud of our organic pork.
How To Cook
We Recommend:
Ingredients:
- 1.2 kg or 2.4 kg pork shoulder
- 4-6 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh rosemary (or 1 tbsp dried)
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika (optional)
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable stock
- 1 onion, quartered (optional)
- 2 carrots, chopped (optional)
- 2-3 sprigs of thyme (optional)
Method:
-
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 150°C (130°C fan) or Gas Mark 2.
-
Prepare the Pork: Pat the pork shoulder dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, olive oil, rosemary, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the pork, ensuring it's well-coated.
-
Sear the Pork (Optional): For added flavour, you can sear the pork shoulder in a hot pan with a little oil for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned. This step is optional but enhances the flavour.
-
Place in Roasting Dish: Place the pork shoulder in a roasting dish. If using, add the quartered onion and chopped carrots around the pork. Pour the chicken or vegetable stock into the bottom of the dish to keep the meat moist during roasting.
-
Roast the Pork:
-
Cooking Times:
- For 1.2 kg: Roast for about 4-5 hours.
- For 2.4 kg: Roast for about 6-7 hours.
Cover the dish with foil for the first half of the cooking time to retain moisture, then uncover for the remainder to allow the skin to crisp up.
-
Cooking Times:
-
Check for Tenderness: The pork should be very tender and easily pull apart with a fork when it's done. You can use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 70°C.
-
Rest the Meat: Once cooked, remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for at least 20-30 minutes before shredding or slicing. This allows the juices to be redistributed.
-
Serve: Shred the pork and serve it with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables, coleslaw, or in sandwiches. Drizzle with the pan juices for added flavour.
- Enjoy: This Slow-Roasted Pork Shoulder is incredibly tender and flavourful, making it perfect for gatherings or a comforting family meal!
