A wonderful way to taste and enjoy the various joints of this heritage rare breed the Middle White.

Huntsham Pork comes from our pedigree Middle White herd. In the 1930s the Middle White was the pork pig of England. However, to compete with the influx of Danish bacon after the war, farmers started to breed larger, leaner pigs for bacon. Young pigs from these bacon breeds are now the source of most pork sold today and the Middle White, the only specialist pork pig, is very rare. Its flavour and crackling are unlike those of any modern pork pig and its fat makes the best roast potatoes in the world.

The sausages are made from the prime meat of their Middle Whites (in contrast to most commercially available sausages) and are served in Michelin starred restaurants and gastropubs throughout the country.

A Quarter Middle White Pig includes:

Half shoulder - Joint - 4 servings
Half leg - Joint/steaks - 6 servings
Chump Fillet - Chops - 2 servings
Loin - Whole/Chops - 7 servings
Sausages – 6 packs
Liver - ¼ Liver
Stock bones

Marcus Wareing who has used Huntsham Meat at The Berkeley reminds us that cooking with these rare breeds encourages their survival.
