Loin on the bone. Approximately 600 gm pack with two cutlets. This product is fresh.
It's apple season and nothing beats pork with apple sauce - and it's so easy. Caramelise diced onions in oil and butter, add roughly chopped apples and let them cook for about five minutes. Then add a splash of red wine vinegar and fresh sage (or thyme) and cook until the apples are lovely and soft. Season to taste and serve with the pork.
The Producers We buy whole bodies of a range of different sized pigs on a rotating basis from a number of farms - from big baconers through to suckling pigs. Most available cuts come from porker pigs which are about 50-65 kg that are 5-7 months old. The pork we source is:
packed with the farm and breed clearly labelled;
hormone and antibiotic-free;
entirely free ranging on chemical-free pasture;
a mix of breeds including Berkshire, Landrace, Large White, English Large Black, Duroc, Wessex Saddleback and Tamworth;
from NSW farms.
The producers we work with are entirely transparent about their processes and welcome all questions.
