Pork Belly – Free-Range

Pork belly is a ‘value’ cut that has become a savoured delicacy, ideal for slow roasting. This is a flavoursome cut which is also high in fat, if the rind is ‘open roasted’ it creates a superb crackling.

The forage based diet of our free range pigs gives the pork a delicious flavour and texture. This means the meat is more likely to contain higher levels of minerals and vitamins, anti-inflammatory fats and anti-oxidants.

Some people are still being given outdated advice on eating saturated fats and cholesterol. Find out why fat is not your enemy…

Our pork belly come from free-range pork that is reared in a system that has health and welfare at its heart. These pigs are not certified organic but have the space to roam and root.

The pigs are reared on a high proportion of pasture approved foods including fresh pasture, local vegetables and lucerne silage. The pigs will receive some grains and a mix of foods to help them achieve essential nutrients such as copper sulphate. They are also reared without the use of routine antibiotics.

About Primal Meats

We aim to offer you nutrient dense meat from Farms who rear their animals to very high standards of welfare and manage their land in harmony with nature.
Our meats are perfect for those following diets based on ancestral wisdom as they are as close as possible to meats from the wild.

The beef, lamb, mutton and hogget are 100% grass fed and carry the “Pasture for life” logo, providing reassurance of nutrient quality and traceability amongst a world of misleading “grass fed meat” products. We offer certified organic or free-range chicken and our pork is free range, pasture reared (not just outdoor bred) and sourced from the highest quality farms we can find. Our wild game comes from estates across Scotland, the North of England and the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire.
