Pork Leaf Fat
Pork Leaf Fat
Our Pork Leaf Fat is a high-quality, premium fat sourced from the interior of our heritage, pasture-raised pigs. Known for its mild flavor and smooth texture, this fat is prized for its purity and is perfect for rendering into lard or using in a variety of recipes to add richness and depth. Serving ideas: Pork Leaf Fat is ideal for rendering into lard, which can be used for frying, sautéing, or baking, creating tender, flaky pie crusts and pastries. It has a higher melting point and is less greasy than other fats, making it a favorite among chefs for creating light and crispy textures in cooking. You can also incorporate it into ground meat to enhance flavor and juiciness, particularly in sausages or burgers. For nose-to-tail utilization, Pork Leaf Fat is a wonderful resource, allowing you to create your own high-quality cooking fats while supporting the sustainable use of the entire animal. Whether you’re rendering it at home or using it in your favorite recipes, Pork Leaf Fat adds a luxurious richness to your meals, making it an essential ingredient for any kitchen.
Each Package is approximately 2.0 - 2.5 Lbs.
About Red Belle Ridge Farm
We’re Don and Tiffany, the owners of Red Belle Ridge Farm — a homestead nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. After years of moving from swampy South Florida to horse country in Reddick and eventually to Gainesville, we finally landed on our 50-acre dream farm in Western North Carolina. Through every move, we've learned what works (and what definitely doesn’t), and now we focus on raising hardy, heritage breed livestock with rotational grazing and low-intervention practices.
Our farm is home to American Guinea Hogs, Clun Forest Sheep, Morgan horses, heritage rabbits, and Buff Orpington chickens. We’re also proud to supply local farmers and homesteaders with trusted brands like New Country Organics, Timeless Fence, and Drinking Post Waterers. The name "Red Belle Ridge" honors our journey from Labelle to Reddick to the Ridge — and the century-old red barn that made it all feel like home.
Our mission is to provide the highest quality products to our customers. Our animals are pasture-raised, treated humanely and fed only New Country Organics products, including free-choice minerals for a more nutritionally complete product.
