Description
Rare Breed Pork Collar Joint – approx. 1.1kg (serves 4)
A beautifully marbled roasting joint from the neck of a native breed pig, this Rare Breed Pork Collar Joint is one of those versatile cuts that rewards both slow cooks and adventurous home cooks alike. Raised on North Yorkshire farms with time-honoured care, the meat has a perfect balance of meat and fat that keeps it juicy and tender through a range of cooking methods.
Unlike more familiar roasting cuts, pork collar sits between the shoulder and loin and is prized for its succulence and rich character. The generous intramuscular fat means it’s forgiving in the oven, ideal for a Sunday roast with crackling, but it also shines when braised low and slow or cut into thick collar steaks for pan-searing or the BBQ.
At around 1.1kg, this joint serves four comfortably, with plenty of juices to make a simple gravy or a punchy sauce to accompany seasonal veg and roasted apples. Whether you’re planning a classic roast or experimenting with pulled pork or slow-braised dishes, this cut delivers a depth of taste and texture that’s distinctly superior to supermarket pork.
Key points:
-
Perfect for roasting, braising or slicing into steaks
-
Rich marbling delivers succulent, tender meat
-
A great choice for traditional Sunday meals or more adventurous recipes
