PORK

The finest pork direct from British farmers

Pork is such a versatile product which can be produced in many ways. Due to its value for money cost you can really explore different cuts and ideas with out costing a fortune. C&P is blessed for pork being based in the heart of Gloucestershire home to the Gloucester old spot. We like happy animals as we feel it produces much better meat so we buy free range pigs, which have had a natural feed and growth along with tender attention through out.

A personal favourite of ours is the tomahawk pork chop from the loin. We do try where we can to take things one step further and question the ways of production to make sure our customers are receiving the best product they require being produce in the best way possible. Which led us onto dry ageing certain cuts of pork to customer request, this has some incredible results. Naturally this breaks down the fibres in the meat to make a much more pleasant eating experience, as a side effect of this the skin is dried out and produces the most incredible crackling you will ever eat which will just peel off, great sign of good pork.

GLOUCESTER OLD SPOT PORK

The Gloucester Old Spot is a large breed, white in colour with a minimum of one distinct black spot. It has lopped ears which will almost cover the face of a mature pig and hang towards the nose. So today’s Gloucester Old Spot is recognised as the oldest such breed in the world. The pigs are white with clearly defined black spots. There must be at least one spot on the body to be accepted in the registry. The breed’s maternal skills enable it to raise large litters of piglets on pasture. Its disposition and self sufficiency should make it attractive for farmers raising pasture pigs and those who want to add pigs to diversified operations.

MIDDLE WHITE PORK

The Middle White is a breed of domestic pig native to the United Kingdom. It originated in Yorkshire roughly around the same time as the Large White. Its name comes from the fact that it was between the size of the Large White and the now-extinct Small White. It was fully recognised as a breed in 1884. Best known for its sharply upturned snub nose. the breed is listed as endangered by the Rare Breeds Survival Trust.
