It's My Pig In A Box

To recap, last weekend we stopped in to Frasers of Turnastone on our way into the Welsh hills. That set in motion the delivery of a Pig in the Box: a delivered box of fresh pork. After an email and a phone call with Chrissy - the most enthusiastic meat-representative I have ever met - we switched up our pig in the box for the Turnastone Taster. The Taster was a bit cheaper and allowed us to mix in some other cuts. We also could select from a list of other meats and charcuterie.

Saturday morning while we were out running errands, the box was delivered. Keep in mind, Frasers had no payment information from us, no credit card, no check. They didn't leave an invoice. We'll just settle up later.

We picked the pork belly for dinner. The meat slideshow tells the rest.

Cheers!

Could have done without the hair shot - but the final product looks incredible.

damn, looks good enough that I might even eat it. Congrats on a beautiful meal, and hey, Nice Box A Meat!

Nice box indeed! I generally don’t eat anything that is more stubbly than me, but when the final product looks that pork-a-licious….. What no tongue in that box? A little lengua with your chorizo would be a nice contrast. Invite the postman over for a nice sangria and some refried beans.
