Pork Back Fat – Thick – 1kg

The texture and colour of native breed pork back fat is perfect for making salami and other charcuterie.

Whether making classic French pâté, Italian salami, or British black pudding, pork back fat is often the key ingredient that makes the difference between a mediocre and a truly exceptional product.

IMPORTANT: This fat is ideal if you want thicker pieces. We have selected the thickest we have available, around 1cm plus. If you want thinner pieces for salami and sausages, click here.
