“The cheeks were of good looking quality plenty of meat on all of them.making guanciale so won't know for a few months what they will taste like. My Italian student had somecguancilae sent over from sardinia,must admit my pipers farm meat looks much better than the Italian one.”

We're thrilled to hear that your order was delivered exactly when you requested, and we're glad you found the lovely wool wrap useful for keeping your items frozen.

“Very delicious, my only criticism was that there was no recipe with the item, nor on your website. Given the different nature of your offering, ie. not just the meaty part, a recipe would have been very useful. As it was I resorted to finding a recipe on the website of another online butcher/farm shop, which I'm sure you don't want to encourage!”

“Flavour is superb, and gives good crackling...but they are VERY fatty, so not for everyone.”

“Delicious! I have cooked the pork cheeks in my slow cooker and in my pressure cooker and they have been tender and very tasty. I have grilled the cheeks after cooking in my pressure cooker which has also been very good. I love eating plain pork fat with the skin and a bit of salt and this is a perfect cut of pork for that! Thanks to Pipers Farm for raising their animals so well. It makes a great difference to taste as well as to my health.”
