Pulled Ham by Grid Iron Meat: A Time Saving Ingredient with a Variety of Uses.

Pulled Ham – an alternative to the classic pulled pork. Made from our traditionally cured gammon hocks, this product is a testament to our dedication to premium ingredients.

The Art of Making Pulled Ham

Our journey to creating Pulled Ham begins with the best pork. In contrast to the usual smoked pulled pork, our ham undergoes a meticulous curing and cooking process. This method ensures the preservation of the meat’s natural tastes, offering a distinctive and delightful experience. The natural curing and cooking process retains the wholesome qualities of the meat, making it a preferred choice for those who favour non-smoked, yet richly savoury meats.
