Top-quality, organic pork, slowly smoked for a delicious flavour. This Smoked Collar Bacon is expertly prepared by The Green Butcher.
What makes me special?
- Dry-cured in small batches - And gently air-dried over wood, for a deep smoky taste - Using the shoulder cut for its depth of flavour and well-marbled fat. Unlike back bacon, the marbled fat melts into the meat while cooking for a more succulent texture. - From organically farmed Tamworth pigs – a native, pedigree breed - Reared slowly on a nutritious, natural and varied diet - Makes the perfect bacon sandwich or roast with sweet root vegetables - Delivered sustainably to your door, with zero air miles and zero pointless plastic

Producer
The Green Butcher is a small, Twickenham-based cooperative, co-owned by Nick Green and the organic, British dairy farm, Horton House Farm on the Wiltshire-Somerset border. The Green Butcher was founded to champion the virtues of low-impact, low-input, pasture-based farming, where livestock are rotated to a fresh, nutritious pasture every day, to give the soil time to regenerate and boost biodiversity. All of the collective’s meat bears the Pasture for Life mark, which certifies that it comes from animals raised only on grass and pasture.
