Organic Pork Cheeks

Organic pork cheeks are a pretty well forgotten cut that you're unlikely to see on the butcher's counter, let alone in the supermarket. For once, the name of this cut is broadly accurate: pork cheeks are the pads of meat from each side of the pig's jaw. They're delicately delicious and, when cooked slowly, meltingly tender and succulent. If you're feeling squeamish about the idea of eating cheeks, please don't. This is a really under-appreciated cut that deserves a try. Our butchers meticulously trim out the meat from the cheek, so there's no prep for you to worry about.

At The Organic Butchery, we believe pigs should live in sociable family groups; they should live outdoors for as much of the year as possible and they should be able to rootle with their snouts and wallow in mud. The sustainable, organic system in which our pigs live has animal welfare at its core and produces amazing meat as a result. We believe in using the most sustainable methods possible whilst organically rearing our animals; we aim to use as much of the carcass as possible, to reduce wastage.
