The hind saddle is an Austrian speciality. Compared to the front one, it is significantly meatier, darker in colour, finely fibrous and extremely aromatic. This makes the Sttelze from straw pigs perfect for long cooking times.Its hearty flavour enhances hearty dishes such as rice or cabbage.

Meat knowledge

The hindquarter shank is part of the foot and is connected to the leg. In Austria it is also sold brushed. In Germany it is salted and then cooked and is known as Surhaxe.

What else makes this product so special, apart from its juicy, crunchy flavour? The wonderfully simple preparation!

How is the shank prepared?
This is how you can be sure of success!

Simply rub the hindquarter shank with salt, wrap in aluminium foil and roast in the oven at 150°C for 3-3.5 hours until tender. Once cooked, unwrap and collect the juices, heat the oven to 240°C, rub the shank with salt again, cut into slices and roast for about 15 minutes to get a crispy crust.

A stilt weighing 1.5 kg is enough for four to five people.

Pigs are extremely intelligent and clean animals. Therefore, species-appropriate and caring rearing is the be-all and end-all for us. A requirement that is also reflected in the delicious taste.

If you compare pigs from factory farms, for example, one thing is immediately clear: due to the constant stress, the meat is much firmer, loses a lot of water when roasted and hardly has any flavour of its own.

For us at Fitmeat, this type of rearing is out of the question for many reasons. We fight for animal welfare and the appreciation of meat products and strictly distance ourselves from immoral factory farming.

After careful and stress-free individual slaughtering of the pigs, our butchers allow the straw pigs to mature on the bone for a few days. The result is juicy and tender pieces of pork with a wonderful meat flavour.
