| STORAGE ADVICE | While we’d be surprised if you could resist the temptation to enjoy immediately, please keep refridgerated unless you intend to eat it right away! Otherwise all our quality meat is suitable for freezing to preserve its taste and texture, meaning you can cook and serve it when you fancy. Once it’s been frozen, please thaw your meat slowly and thoroughly, ideally in the fridge overnight. We vacuum-pack our meat to naturally extend its freshness and make it suitable for home-freezing. |
| PACKAGING | This pack contains 1 piece. Your item will arrive in a 100% recycled box lovingly packed with FSC-certified shredded spruce from Britain and Sweden, natural sheep’s wool insulation and non-toxic chilled gel packs, all of which can be reused, composted or recycled. To recycle the gel packs, simply cut a corner and dispose of the contents through your normal domestic waste system, as the gel isn’t harmful to the environment. Better still, reuse them by storing in the freezer and chilling other products. The only component from our packaging that can’t be recycled are the foil liners which need to be go in household waste; the poly bags meat comes in in need to go in plastic recycling. |

If you’re looking to cook pork trotters specifically for your pet, it’s important to note that the preparation and cooking methods may differ from traditional human recipes. Here’s a simple cooking instruction for pork trotters for pets:
Ingredients:
- 1 pork trotters
- Water (enough to cover the trotters)
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil (optional)
- 1 cup of mixed vegetables (such as carrots, peas, and green beans)
- 1 cup of cooked grains (such as rice or quinoa)
Instructions:
- Clean the pork trotters: Rinse the pork trotters thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. You can also trim off excess fat if desired.
- Cook the pork trotters: Place the cleaned trotters in a large pot and cover them with enough water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 2 to 3 hours or until the meat is tender. Skim off any foam or impurities that may rise to the surface.
- Remove the trotters from the pot: Once the trotters are tender, carefully remove them from the pot and set them aside to cool.
- Shred or chop the meat: Once the trotters have cooled down, remove the meat from the bones and shred or chop it into small, manageable pieces. Discard any bones, cartilage, or tough connective tissues.
- Prepare the vegetables: Steam or boil the mixed vegetables until they are cooked but still retain some crunchiness. Avoid using seasonings, salt, or additives that may be harmful to pets.
- Mix the ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded/chopped pork trotter meat, cooked vegetables, and cooked grains. You can add a tablespoon of olive oil to enhance the flavor and provide some healthy fats, but this is optional.
- Portion and serve: Divide the mixture into individual serving portions appropriate for your pet’s size and store them in airtight containers. You can refrigerate or freeze the portions for future use. Thaw before serving if frozen.
Important considerations:
- Remove any bones, skin, or tough connective tissues before serving the pork trotters to your pet to prevent choking hazards.
- Ensure that the pork trotters are thoroughly cooked to eliminate any bacteria or parasites that may be present.
- Avoid using seasonings, spices, onions, garlic, or any ingredients that can be toxic to pets.
- Consult with your veterinarian before introducing new foods or making any significant changes to your pet’s diet.
Remember, it’s always a good idea to consult with your veterinarian to ensure the specific dietary needs of your pet are being met.
