Ground to the perfect texture to balance its extraordinarily rich, dark meat with its famous, melt-in-your-mouth fat, this ground pork delivers an unparalleled depth of flavour, natural juiciness, and a velvety finish. Whether you are crafting the ultimate artisan meatballs, elevating a classic bolognese, or shaping custom burger patties, this ultra-premium ground pork brings the legendary, complex profile of Spanish-descended heritage livestock straight to your kitchen table.

Ossabaw Island Hogs and their 16th-Centry Spanish Ancestry

Sourced exclusively from our rare-breed, heritage Ossabaw Island Hogs. Descending from historic feral populations off the coast of Georgia that trace back to 16th-century Spanish explorers, the Ossabaw Island Hog is believed to be related to Iberian genetics. Because of this unique lineage, they yield an exceptional culinary profile that commercial pork simply cannot replicate. They are celebrated for their rich, dark meat and a uniquely soft, low-melting-point fat cover that beautifully mimics Spain’s world-famous Jamón Ibérico.
