Best Packed Lunch EVER!

We always love to hear how our pork is enjoyed. This is my favourite story so far...  

Brides to be, Bets and Eleri purchased a large leg joint, roasted it to perfection, cooled it, sliced it and took it on their mammoth journey to Gretna Green (from South Wales) in a vintage Camper van! The sliced pork fed the wedding party for the entire journey.

Roast Pork with Crackling

Roast Pork Joint with cracking crackling! 

All Ty Siriol Pork Joints will have the bone in. We believe this really adds to the flavour when cooking. If cooked well, the succulent meat will simply fall off the bone. To achieve great crackling I've listed the following instructions. This is what I follow... think it originated from good ol' Delia with a few tweaks from us, we've done it a few times now ;)  

* Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 8, 450°F (230°C). 

* Making sure the surface of the skin is very dry, rub in a small amount of olive oil and sprinkle sea salt (optional) we don't most of the time. 

* Roast for 25 minutes, then lower the temperature to gas mark 5, 375°F (190°C) allow 35 minutes per lb (450 g). 

All our cuts of meat have the weights on the labels, so no need to get the kitchen scales out! 

* Don't baste the pork, the crackling won't crisp if you do! 

* Allow to relax in a warm place for 20 minutes before carving (that's the pork not you and try your hardest not to pick at the meat while you are waiting!)

We think you can't beat this roast as a Sunday lunch!

You can't beat a bacon sarnie on a cold autumn morning!

Brrrr 

It was cold outside at 6.45 this morning! 

But it was worth going out in the cold to see the sunrise. 

Once we had fed the horses, changed their rugs and fed the pigs. It was time for us to have breakfast! 

Bacon Sarnies were top of the list this morning! 

You can't beat a good home cured bit of bacon!
