Our nitrate-free gammon hock is a true slow-cooked delight — full of succulent, fall-apart meat and a naturally sweet, smoky depth of flavour. Carefully cured without any artificial nitrates or preservatives, this hock offers a clean, honest taste that lets the quality of the pork shine through.
Perfect for simmering or slow-roasting, it transforms into tender, melt-in-the-mouth meat that’s ideal for comforting stews, hearty broths, or pulling apart for sandwiches and salads. With its marbled richness and robust flavour, this cut is both deeply satisfying and incredibly versatile.

Gammon hock is the meaty middle section of the pig's leg. Comprising a collection of muscles plus connective tissues and the thigh bone, this is a hearty cut with rich, complex flavour. Because the leg muscles have worked hard, the texture of hock is open and robust. With slow cooking the meat will fall into moist strands, of the sort you'd see in pulled pork. A thrifty cut, hock would traditionally have been boiled. We recommend it as an alternative to pork leg when you're looking for a roasting joint perfect for two.
Our ham hocks come whole, on the bone, they are cured without nasty nitrates, we use just natural ingredients to bring out the best flavour. The quality of our meat is reflective of our high-welfare and sustainability standards; our organic pigs are fed a healthy diet of grass, hay and concentrated food and are slow-grown to maturity, running, basking, and wallowing all year round. Living outdoors is obviously vital for the well-being of these intelligent creatures, but it’s also vital for the production of top-quality pork.
We like to slow cook ours and pull the meat to make a smashing terrine.
