Raw Pasture Raised Pork Fat for Lard
Raw, unaltered pork fat from truly pasture raised pigs.
Our pork fat is not bleached, deodorized, hydrogenated or altered. It is the raw, uncured, unsalted fat from the pig, and can be rendered for cooking to make lard, or sliced thin for larding lean cuts of meat or game poultry. Lard makes the best pastry for pies and tarts, and adds excellent flavor as a cooking medium.

Customer Reviews
This time the lard had a lot of meat, which was hard to cut off. Also, it came in very thin layers, which made it hard for even rendering. I appreciate the fact, that it's pasture raised.
This is a very nice , clean pork fat. Rendered down amazingly well. I ended up with pure white pork lard. I am impressed with the quality. The price was great for the quality. The shipping cost was way too expensive. East coast was $75. Nearly double the cost of 5lbs of pork fat. Not sure the value of the total cost but the product is superior.
Very happy with my order
Good, clean, healthy fat. Thank you! 🙂
I followed the steps in the video linked and I got delicious lard to cook with! 2.5 lbs of fat rendered about a quart of lard.
Making my own lard is great because the only lard I can get locally has nasty preservatives in it.
I add a scoop of lard to casseroles to give them a flavor boost and to add more healthy fats and nutrients.
