Our half pork heads come from pigs raised the way nature intended — on pasture, with access to sunshine, fresh air, and certified organic feed. These animals are rotated regularly for soil health and raised with care, without antibiotics or synthetic inputs.
A traditional cut that’s making a comeback in slow food kitchens, pork head is full of flavour, gelatin, and nutrition.
Great for:
-
head cheese (brawn) – a traditional delicacy made by simmering the head and setting it in its own collagen-rich broth
-
soups and broths – deep, porky flavour with natural gelatin
-
tacos de cabeza – a slow-cooked Mexican dish using the tender cheek and jowl meat
-
nose-to-tail cooking – honouring the whole animal and reducing waste
Each half head includes cheek, ear, jowl, and snout — all parts known for their rich flavour and versatility in global cuisines.
