Diced Pork from The Butchers Blade in Sandbach. Choose this with the recipe and cooking method in mind, rather than assuming every small piece of meat cooks the same way. A diced braising cut and a preparation intended for the grill can lead to very different meals. Check the product description and selected option to make sure this is the right starting point for your plans.
Choosing for your meal
Decide how many people you are feeding and whether the meat will be combined with vegetables, a sauce or other ingredients. Confirm the selected weight or quantity and ask Lee which preparation suits this particular cut if the instructions are not listed. Any seasoning or marinade should come from the product details, not an assumption based on the name.
Serving ideas
Rice, potatoes and vegetables are flexible accompaniments, chosen to suit your recipe. Organise the sides before cooking and follow the appropriate method for the meat and preparation. Minced or formed products need thorough cooking throughout. Extra ingredients are not included unless stated, and the product label should guide safe handling, refrigeration and cooking.
Vacuum packed or tray wrapped to lock in freshness

Cooking Diced Pork
Use a covered braise or your slow cooker’s recommended method for this cut. Check both thorough cooking and tenderness; timing depends on size and appliance. For poultry, pork, minced meat, sausages, rolled joints and mechanically tenderised meat, cook thoroughly: the centre should reach 70°C for 2 minutes, or 75°C for 30 seconds. Clean the thermometer before and after checking.

Bring out the best in pork
Pork loves sweetness and spice — apple, fennel, sage and mustard all work. Season well and always cook it through.

Cabbage, roast potatoes and apple. Pinot Noir, a dry cider or an alcohol-free apple spritz.
