A rich, flavorful mix of pasture raised pork fat and lean belly meat with the skin left on for a crispy, savory, salty treat. 

With its great balance of fat and lean, our pasture raised pork belly cooks up into the most delicious, crispy, clean eating treat!

Pork belly is cut from the bottom middle section of the pig. This cut is often smoked and cured to make bacon, but we also like to enjoy it in its raw form. Each piece consists of layers of fat interspersed with lean meat. Our pasture-raised pigs have healthier fat than conventional pork which makes this a great treat. These cuts of pork belly have the skin left on.

Pork belly should be cooked low and slow to allow the fat time to melt, but it should be finished on high to get the edges nice and crispy. We like to bake in the oven at a low temperature but then turn the oven up for the last twenty minutes. Alternately, we will bake it and let it cool before slicing, and searing in a pan. Because it is such a rich meat, we like to serve our pork belly along lots of farm fresh vegetables and homemade pickles!

These 2-pound cuts have the skin left on for crispiest, tastiest, savory treat ever!

Each piece of Red House Ranch Pork Belly weighs around two pounds which is enough to serve four to five people.
