Why you will love our Leg Of Hogget Boned And Rolled...
- Very easy to cook and carve
- Exceptional heritage breed hogget locally reared on Suffolk pasture
- Tender, with fantastic flavour
Pasture-fed leg of hogget is a wonderful traditional Sunday roast, and it goes a long way! There's plenty of meat on a leg with a little rich creamy fat to baste the joint while cooking, making the perfect roasting joint. We have removed the bone on this joint for easy carving, and recommend a slow roast to medium in the oven.
Our exceptional, local, heritage breed hogget is between 12-24 months old and has had the best part of two summers grazing on the wild flowers and grasses of this quiet corner of Suffolk. These lovely animals are shepherded by our enlightened sheep farmers who care deeply about their welfare and husbandry. The extra grazing time really does give hogget the most excellent flavour and unlike mutton it can be very tender, so doesn't always require such a low, long cook.
Because we are a whole-carcass butchery our pasture-fed hoggets arrive whole so we butcher on site, after the dry-aging process. We like to hang our hogget for a minimum of 10-14 days to make the most of this tender and flavourful meat.
Our boned and rolled leg of hogget will feed 6-8.
