Pigs cheek
Introducing Our Succulent Pig’s Cheeks
Discover the rich, unctuous flavor of our premium Pig’s Cheeks—an often-overlooked cut that delivers outstanding taste and tenderness. Sourced from pasture-raised pigs, each cheek is hand-trimmed to showcase its natural, succulent qualities. The cheeks’ beautiful and flavourful when cooked slowly, resulting in melt-in-your-mouth morsels infused with deep, savory pork essence.
Serving Suggestions:
Classic Braised Cheeks: Brown the cheeks, then braise slowly in red wine with aromatics (onion, garlic, thyme) until the meat falls apart. Serve over creamy polenta or buttery mashed potatoes, spooning the rich jus on top.
Taco Al Pastor–Style: Marinate cheeks in a chili–pineapple adobo, slow-roast until tender, shred, and pile into warm tortillas. Top with fresh cilantro, diced onion, and a squeeze of lime for an unforgettable twist on street tacos.
Pasta Perfection: Cook cheeks down into a silky ragù with tomatoes, carrot, celery, and garlic. Toss with pappardelle or tagliatelle and finish with a sprinkle of aged Parmigiano-Reggiano and black pepper.
Delightful Croquettes: Shred leftover braised cheeks, mix with béchamel or mashed potatoes, roll into bite-sized croquettes, coat in panko, and fry until golden. Serve with a tangy aioli for a crowd-pleasing appetizer.
