Meat knowledge
The shoulder, also known as the boneless, round cut shoulder, is part of the forequarter of the pig. The shoulder is next to the neck. The meat has rather long fibres and a relatively high proportion of tendons.
In terms of flavour, the shoulder is a real winner. It has a strong flavour of its own with a little bite. Boneless, round shoulder can be used to make roast pork, rice meat, pulled pork, rolled roast and many other dishes.
What is so special about boneless round shoulder?
In its 'washed' state, the shoulder comes with bones, fat and rind. But at Fitmeat you can also get the boneless round cut shoulder without the rind. This means that the fat content is now 5-7%. A very fine alternative to other cuts.
Shoulder without bone - the BBQ highlightDue to the structure of the meat, the boneless round shoulder is ideal for "low and slow" cooking. In other words, slow cooking at low temperatures.
Connoisseurs know what we are talking about. That's right, it's smocking time! This is where a wonderful meat aroma develops and the meat can be torn into individual fibres.
Quantity per person
We recommend one kilogram of shoulder 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.
