Split Pig Trotters - Frozen
Description
A true nose to tail cut, these free-range pig trotters are a butcher's favourite, perfect for enriching bone broths with gelatin from the skin, giving body and flavour to liquids. Popular in Asian cuisine, pig trotters also make for tasty dishes when braised and eaten whole. As with all our pork, we source from the very best free-range hogs, making for tasty dining every time. Pig trotters are an underdog in the pork world, and often get left for waste. Instead, their meat is a delicious alternative that's not only cheaper than more popular cuts but often the most flavoursome. Well suited to braising, we would always recommend crisping the skin either by deep-frying or grilling if incorporated as part of a meal. Leave the knife and fork behind, pig trotters are made to be gnawed at!
This product is frozen and will defrost whilst in transit to you. Ensure this product is thoroughly defrosted before cooking. We strongly recommend cooking within 24 hours for best quality. This product must not be refrozen.

How to cook pig trotters
For making a stock, place the trotters in a large stockpot, cover with water, bring to a boil for 10 minutes not forgetting to skim and discard the top layer of the water and then rinse the trotters. Then add your chosen ingredients/aromatics for your stock.
- If you are using a slow cooker, cook on low for about 14 hours.
- If you are using a stock pot on the hob, cook for at least 3 hours, and do not allow the trotters to dry out, checking on them occasionally and topping up with water as necessary.
About the breed
Heritage
we'll choose from our selection of available free range pork
It's good to eat and enjoy meat from free range systems, showing farmers that there is a market for herds reared in an ethical manner. When intensive farming reigned unchallenged in the second half of the last century, many of our traditional breeds all but disappeared because they don't take kindly to factory farming. We want to change this by backing free range farming and helping more people realise that we need to safeguard the variety of our farms and to demand meat with intrinsic flavour that comes from higher welfare systems. All of our meat fits that bill perfectly.
