£11.41 per kgProduct information
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

Tender meat
I bought this on a flash sale but would buy again at full price. The meat was really moist & not fatty at all. Lovely crackling too so what’s not to like.
Not as shown
My joint arrived but looked nothing like the picture. It was a square piece of meat with no scoring whatsoever on the skin. It looked more like a piece of belly pork. After slow cooking in the aga for 5 hours there was barely enough to feed 6. I have bought these joints of meat previously but this was awful!!!!
top notch
Had this last week and it was everything you want a joint to be Moist juicy full of flavour and perfect crackling and lots of it. When everyone was eating cracking at the same time it was deafening. Perfect.
Fantastic
Great flavour, crackling was amazing, nice lean meat.
Lots of hairs
The meat was good quality but it was covered in thick long hairs. I will probably not be buying again.
Great Roasting Joint
pleased with this joint. it didn't shrink, gave great crackling and the meat was sweet and succulent. 2.2kg joint gave 8 good portions. I used the Good Food - see online - method to cook it. would buy again and recommend.
