This lard is rendered from our forest fed pigs supplemented with Non-GMO verified feed. This product is a great alternative to cooking oils such as vegetable oil because it is much more stable, and less likely to break down into harmful free radicals.
This lard is great for baking, is pure white, and was not heated above 170 degrees F in the rendering process. It can also be used for frying, or as a spread in place of mayo or butter.
This pork comes from our own pigs who were moved to a new area every week in our "Piggy Woods" where they root up the ground for tubers, eat grass and weeds, acorns, wild blackberries, and anything else they desire. They were supplemented with a ration of Non-GMO whole wheat soaked in water.
