What is pork collar?

Pork collar is a beautifully marbled cut from the neck of the pig. It’s a well-used muscle group, which means it packs a lot of flavour and has a firm, meaty bite. At the same time, it’s richly laced with intramuscular fat that slowly melts during cooking, keeping the meat wonderfully juicy. That’s exactly why it’s such a favourite among BBQ enthusiasts and slow-cooking fans. There’s so much you can do with it, think pulled pork, a celebratory roast, or a hearty stew. Its structure makes it perfect for seasoning or marinating, as it absorbs flavours exceptionally well.

Porc au Grain, honest French pork

This meat comes from pigs raised in France on a diet rich in grains such as corn, wheat, and barley. This not only gives the meat its lovely marbling, but also a signature tender flavour with a soft finish. The animals are kept under controlled, animal-friendly conditions, with plenty of space and calm, which translates directly into the quality of the meat. In France, porc au grain has long been known as a reliable and flavourful top-tier pork, and this cut more than lives up to that reputation.
