This British Pork with good welfare standards is excellent and tender cooked at 160 for a couple of hours

makes delicious Pulled pork

5 stars

A Tesco Customer11th March 2021

Long low cooking (5 hours or so) makes wonderful pulled pork which freezes well for sandwhiches that are better for stewed apple sauce.

Don’t bother if you want a roast

A Tesco Customer22nd February 2021

this is a really good cut: very reasonably priced and always tender. i roast mine in the oven, and get crispy crackling and lots of juices to make proper gravy.

Not "Joint" of pork at all.

A Tesco Customer9th February 2021

This so-called Shoulder Joint was absolutely terrible. All it consisted of was scrapss of meat, lots of rubbish scraps, bundled together and then wrapped up in a piece of pork fat. By no stretch of the imagination was this a JOINT OF MEAT - I could not carve it, it was just a huge mess of rubbishy scraps of meat, and I ended up throwing it away. We therefore had no meat for our Sunday Roast. I am disgusted with Tesco. This was abysmal. I have given one star because it will not let me award NO STARS.

Terrible

A Tesco Customer26th January 2021

This was the worst thing i ordered there was nothing but fat in it barely any meat at all i was so dissapointed

BRITISH MEAT

5 stars

A Tesco Customer25th January 2021

I only brought this pork because it was British and it did not disappoint. Not too fatty and very tender. However I didn't cook it according to accompanying cooking instructions as I prefer to give it a hot blast first and then turn the heat down to slow cook for a longer period of time.
