Pork Jowl

Porter Road Verified independent store

If you don’t love pork fat, turn back now. This cut is a great option for dipping your toes into making bacon — it won't take up too much space in the fridge while curing. If you d on't have a week to cure bacon, it can be braised and used to add extra flavor to ramen or vegetable-heavy dishes. The Jowls may be an approachable size but this is not a cut you want to eat alone in one sitting due to the richness. Our pigs have an active lifestyle and varied diet which means the meat has more flavor than anything you’ll find at the grocery store. Great flavor starts in the field. At Porter Road, we partner with farmers who raise their animals on pasture, with no hormones or antibiotics, for a difference you can taste. Show more
