What is pork belly with rind?

Pork belly comes from the underside of the pig, a cut known for its bold flavour and distinctive fat layers. In this case, the rind, or skin, is left intact, and that’s exactly what makes this cut so special. During cooking, the rind dries out and becomes deliciously crisp, while the fat beneath melts gently into the meat, keeping it tender and juicy. By scoring the rind and seasoning the meat well, you draw flavour deep into every layer, creating a final result that will leave your guests speechless.

Porc au Grain, grain-fed pork from France

This pork belly comes from porc au grain, French pigs raised on a traditional grain-based diet of corn, wheat, and barley. The grain feed promotes good marbling and a mildly sweet flavour, while the meat remains firm and juicy. The animals are kept in calm, controlled conditions with plenty of space and natural daylight. The result is pork with a full, authentic flavour and a pleasant texture. In France, porc au grain has long been a trusted name in quality pork, and one bite will show you why.
