All our pigs are born outdoors at Packington. Our sows live their whole lives outside with plenty of space to roam, wallow and be sociable. When the piglets are weaned, they are moved into large outdoor paddocks. Here the piglets have the benefit of well bedded, cosy tents, while still being able to run around outside. A happy pig is a healthy pig!
At fourteen weeks of age, our piglets are moved into large, naturally lit sheds with a large outdoor area, where due to our low group numbers, we can ensure the welfare of the pig remains paramount. Tended by our farmers, the pigs are protected from the elements, with lots of space, natural light and natural ventilation, and deep straw beds.
Packington pigs are reared to the highest welfare standards and have been well recognised by butchers and the RSPCA Freedom Foods, as the best you can get. Our pigs develop and mature to produce the delicious meat you've come to expect from Packington. It may take longer to produce pigs in this way and cost a little more, but the results are worth it, and all our customers agree.
All our pork is prepared, hand cut and packed by Jon Thorner's, a Q Guild Master butcher. As a family butchery business, they understand the needs of the customer and their requirements enabling us to bring this truly superb product to you.
We know you'll enjoy it. - Rob Mercer

cook it like belly pork !!
JESUS PEOPLE ... try and work with that recipe like i did ! i was amazing ! https://www.recipetineats.com/crispy-slow-roasted-pork-belly/ The smell is the gas they use to preserve it ... it's fine .. Make sure you open it at least 10mn before you cook it (at room temp which takes about 1hr !) tasted delicious and made surprisingly good crackling when cooked properly !
Strange smell
bought this a few times now, hoping the first pack was just an oddity. everytime, the same smell and no marbling. expected better.
Smells
Expiry date is 7 days away but it smells sour when opened.
nice pork belly
I enjoyed this, despite mixed reviews, it is fatty to be expected but cooked correctly it crisps up into lovely crackling. I would buy these again in the 3 for £12 meat deal, perhaps would swerve if not in the deal due to the amount you get
Smells so bad
This was bought well within date and smelt immediately horrid when opened and even worse whilst cooking. Such a waste of money and time cooking. Never again.
skin + hair
Some people like pork skin. But my family doesnt. And some pig hairs on the skinits disgusting. The taste was not bad. However I should get rid of all of the skinhard working.
