After what seems like a long wait we are delighted to announce that this year's Bacon production has finally arrived.
We took the pigs for their last road trip to H.E. Stiles near Bromhan not far from Calne and then on to Sandridge Bacon and just about 3 weeks later we had the back of the S-Max full of quality meat.
Like last year we have gone for a mixture of wet cured and smoked bacon and first tastings confirm that it is quite simply delicious, in our humble opinion, and also that of our patrons who have sampled their wares.
We have also innovated the way we supply the meat this year, making it available either as a whole half a pig, or as "pig parts", effectively 1/6 of a pig, ie a 1/3 of a half. An example of this can be seen in the photo above where we have divided the whole pig up into 6 parts. Each 1/6 part pig comes with 5 packs of bacon and two other hefty joints apart from one 1/6 which has a decent joint and one slightly smaller one. Both these approaches have proved very popular with a flurry of activity on the night we returned back with the goods.
If you would like to get hold of some of this quality product, hand-reared through the mud, snow and sun, then contact us via our email at ashtonkeynespigs@gmail.com or calling 07834 709 037. But hurry, we are down to our last few portions!
