The loin with rind is a great piece of meat for roast pork. It is best roasted together with a piece of pork shoulder and shoulder with rind - so you have the best of the pork for roast pork. Cut into slices, it is also ideal for roasting in a pan or on the barbecue. Tip: Score the rind a little beforehand to keep the steak nice and flat.
Meat knowledge
The boneless loin is lean and suitable for lean dishes. Due to its low fat content, care must be taken to ensure that it does not dry out.
It is divided into the lean and short-fibred 'short loin' and the fatty 'long loin'. The juiciest and most fatty part of the long loin is near the rump.
What makes our Fitmeat straw pigs so special?
Firstly, the breed of the pigs themselves. Our prime carcasses come from Austrian Gustino straw pigs. They have a really good life on an idyllic family farm. With spacious stalls and comfortable resting areas with straw bedding.
They grow up in small groups, have plenty of room to play and roam, can cuddle in the straw and just feel super comfortable. Slaughter takes place either on the farm or at a nearby butchery or abattoir. This minimises the stress on the animals and the quality of the meat is correspondingly high.
Quantity per person
We recommend one kilogram of loin with rind for three to four people.
Herkunft und Haltung
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.
