Tim Allen’s Pork
Outdoor reared Pork from Morley Farm, South Creake, Holkham Estate, North Norfolk.
Tim Allen is a third generation farmer who has plenty of experience when it comes to pig farming – he breeds only the finest animals on his farm on the North Norfolk coast.
Tim uses a mixture of native breeds that have been crossed with each other to create this succulent pork, including Hampshire pigs, landrace and large white. This type of cross breeding is one of the most popular in the UK because they take all the best attributes from each breed. We take only Gilt pigs as they produce a wonderful sweet flavour without the boar taint sometimes associated with male pigs. Our pigs are slower-growing, which means succulent pork with a good layer of fat and lovely marbling within the meat. (Other, more commercial farms use faster growing pigs which, while maximising profit, produces a drier, inferior meat.)
All our pigs are kept outside from birth to slaughter, and are both “RSPCA Assured” and “Red Tractor” assured. This guarantees the highest standards of welfare, and the confidence of knowing that the animals are cared for and lead a happy life on the farm.
