After slow cooking or braising the cheek meat will fall apart and become meltingly tender. A perfect stew to warm you up on a cold day. We may need a 24 hour warning for this product. Our main pig breed is a Hampshire cross Duroc. These pigs are crossed due to their ability to withstand the British weather, but also for their fat covering and tender meat-eating qualities. The pigs are free-range and are born and spend their whole lives outside, overlooking the South Downs and the Brighton coastline. They are fed on a natural diet, free of growth promotors or growth hormones, that consists primarily of cereal (wheat and barley), with minerals and vitamins making up the rest.

One of the best cuts off the pig, according to Evan. Cheeks are known for deep color, heavy marbling, and rich flavor. Cook them low and slow followed by a hot sear for the best texture. Cheeks are a great option to go on tacos, in stews, or as a decadent take on pulled pork. 4 cheeks per package. 1.0 to 1.65lbs per pack

Our traditional Native Breed Pigs Cheeks are a phenomenal forgotten food. We have meticulously prepared the whole cheek for you, which not only gives you exceptional value, but also gives you so many options, from home-cured guanciale to sumptuous slow cooks. Our Native Breed Pigs Cheeks are a rind-on cheek, that is perfect for slow cooking. You need to deploy patience when cooking pigs' cheeks as they need a leisurely, long, slow braise in the oven for the meat to become meltingly tender - but boy, is it worth the wait! Please be aware that you will receive the whole cheek, not just the eye muscle like many butchers prepare. We are passionate about using every single part of the carcass and believe it is highly wasteful to simply cut the eye muscle from the cheek and throw the rest away when it is such good food! Each cheek weighs approximately 750g. About our Native Breed Pigs Cheek Pasture raised on small scale family farms. Natural diet including; wholegrains, kale, pumpkins, fodder beet and turnips. Born and reared outside in harmony with nature. Hung on the bone for 3 weeks. Meticulously prepared by our talented artisan butchers.

An increasingly popular cut of meat which has had a revival recently due to a number of chefs adding it to their recipes. Needs to be slow cooked until tender and ideal as a winter warmer bursting with flavour.

Iberico pork cheeks are a unique cut of pork meat by being quite meaty yet surprisingly lean. The pork meat is deep red in colour and is exceptionally rich and full of flavour. Iberico Pork is traditionally known as Carrillera Iberica and has the unique benefit of being a lean healthy pork meat without losing the acorn flavoured fat that gives it such a rich taste. The pork cheeks come from the free-range Iberico black pigs that wander the countryside of Southwestern Spain feasting on sweet acorns and are considered a national treasure of Spain. Animal welfare is important to us here at Basco which is why we ensure we only pick produce that has been ethically reared using entirely natural farming methods. In the ancient dehesa habitat, Iberian Pigs wander between cork and holm oak trees, eating grass, herbs and lots of sweet acorns. They live most of their lives outdoors and get plenty of exercise as they trot along with their family group. All this exercise and the amazing diet not only make for happy pigs – it makes for exceptional pork that is delicious and healthy to eat. One of our favourite dishes when we visit Spain is fork-tender iberico pork cheeks served with a rich wine or sherry sauce like ‘rabo de toro’ (oxtail) or braised lamb shanks where slow stewing transforms this special cut into a savoury delight by releasing flavours that slowly meld into an incredibly complex and pleasing dish. Slow-braising takes around three hours, but once you combine the pork with garlic, vegetables, wine and stock in a pan, you just sit back and wait for the magic to happen.
