There are so many ways to cook pork belly

There are so many ways to cook pork belly! In the UK they slow roast for a soft flesh and a hard rind, or ‘crackling’. In China they braise it with skin on, or marinate and cook it as a whole slab. In Colombia they fry strips and serve it as ‘chicharron’. What’s your favourite pork belly roast recipe? #porkbelly #pastureraised #tallabung #pork #forbes #nsw

Slow roasted honey pork belly

Slow roasted honey pork belly. This was so, so tasty and amazingly easy, with a baste made of honey, cumin, paprika and ground chilli. The meat was tender enough to pull with a fork and the crackling was like candy. We’ve got plenty of Tallabung pork in store today if you want to give this a try! #tallabung #pastured #porkbelly #honey #pastureraised #freerange #forbes #nsw #slowroast #dinner

Another weekday favourite

Another weekday favourite: Tallabung pasture-raised pork loin chop, butter basted with sage in the pan for extra sweetness. We find that Tallabung pork stays super juicy and flavourful both when panfried and grilled. #midweek #weekday #dinner #tallabung #pastureraised #pork #forbes #nsw #freerange

Forbes producer Michael Williams of Tallabung Pork …

Forbes producer Michael Williams of Tallabung Pork sent us this pic of his pigs, who he reckons are ‘happy the rain has stopped’. The Williamses focus on rare black breeds that take longer to produce but thrive in outback NSW. They’re free range and pasture-raised and we’ve had nothing but good feedback for the many years that we’ve supplied his pork. #tallabung #pastureraised #pork #forbes #nsw #happypigs #paddocktoplate
