Pork shoulder
Introducing Our Premium Pork Shoulder
Unlock the rich flavor and versatility of our Premium Pork Shoulder—sourced from pasture-raised pigs to ensure optimal taste and texture. Each 1–3 kg shoulder roast features an ideal balance of lean meat and marbled fat, resulting in succulent, tender cuts that shine in both slow-cooked and roasted preparations.
Why You’ll Love It:
Exceptional juiciness: The generous intramuscular fat renders down during cooking, infusing the meat with moisture and deep pork flavor.
Pasture-Raised Quality: Our animals are raised outdoors on a natural grain-based diet, free from hormones and antibiotics, ensuring a clean, authentic taste.
Versatile & Easy to Prepare: From pulled pork and braises to classic roast shoulder, this cut adapts effortlessly to a variety of cuisines and cooking techniques.
Serving Suggestions:
- Classic Pulled Pork: Rub the shoulder with a blend of smoked paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, and garlic, then slow-roast at low heat for 8–10 hours. Shred until tender and toss with barbecue sauce for mouthwatering sandwiches or tacos.
- Hearty Braise: Sear the shoulder until golden-brown, then braise with red wine, tomatoes, onions, and fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme) for 3–4 hours until the meat falls apart. Serve over creamy polenta or buttered egg noodles with the rich pan jus.
- Roast Shoulder With Crackling: Score the skin, season generously with sea salt, cracked black pepper, and fennel seeds. Roast at 160 °C (325 °F) for 4 hours, finishing at high heat to achieve crisp crackling. Slice and serve alongside roasted root vegetables and apple compote for a comforting Sunday feast.
- Spicy Carnitas: Marinate pieces in orange juice, lime, garlic, oregano, and cumin for 2 hours. Simmer gently until the meat is tender, then crisp under a hot broiler or in a skillet. Serve in warm tortillas with pickled onions, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime for authentic Mexican carnitas.
