This high-quality, great-tasting cut is boneless. 1kg per piece, frozen.
Pork shoulder is ideal for making pulled pork. A slow, gentle heat (either slow cooking or a low-temperature roast) melts the fat and allows the protein to break down properly.
The pork shoulder joint was a bit smaller than I thought it was (through no fault of Sasha's though, it was my oversight) and I ended up buying another piece from a good butcher. Cooked both together and guess what? It was so obvious that the smaller Wicks Manor joint was miles better tasty. Even though they were cooked together. I happily pay more for the superior taste and texture. Wonderful.
About the producer
Wicks Manor, a family farm in Essex, England, has 50+ years experience raising pigs. I love visiting and seeing piglets playing in large straw pens, giving mum outside space for a break. The pigs mature naturally, with home grown nutritional hormone free feed and plenty of clean water. Sheltered from nature's harsher elements, but with room to roam and play outside, the piglets’ quality of life is carefully managed. This care ensures Wicks Manor products develop a beautiful depth of flavour.
