Rare Breed Pork Belly – Boned & Rolled

Description

Boned and Rolled Belly Pork – A Butcher’s Favourite, Rolled for Perfect Crackling

This is one of the great roasting joints. Taken from the belly of North Yorkshire rare breed pork, this cut is carefully boned, rolled, and tied by hand to ensure even cooking and maximum flavour.

Belly pork is known for its natural layering of fat and meat – which renders down during roasting to create unbeatable texture, juiciness, and depth. The rind crisps to perfect crackling, while the inner meat becomes rich, succulent, and full of character.

Whether you’re cooking a weekend roast, slicing it into thick rashers for the grill, or using it in slow-cooked dishes, this joint delivers unbeatable flavour and proper eating.

About the Pork

We use only pork from traditional rare breeds, outdoor reared on small, family-run farms. These pigs are allowed to grow slowly on a natural diet, developing strong bone structure and a natural fat covering that intensively farmed pigs simply don’t have.

The result? Pork with deeper flavour, better texture, and proper crackling. It’s what pork used to taste like — and still should.

Cooking Tips

• Roast at high heat first (220°C) to blister the skin and form crackling, then lower to around 160°C to let the meat slowly render and soften.

• For the best results, pat the skin dry, score deeply, and rub with salt and a little oil before roasting.

• Try glazing with cider, fennel seed, or honey towards the end of cooking for extra flavour.

Also great cooked low and slow in a barbecue smoker or braised in Asian-style broths.
