Choose options
Incredible braised pork belly cuts made from free-range pigs raised in the great outdoors of Hokkaido. Each pack contains 150g (5.2oz) of pre-braised meat - simply heat up and enjoy. This pork belly comes from healthy pigs raised completely free from growth hormones and preventative antibiotics. No preservatives or additives, and no added sugar. This special braised pork belly is made exclusively for Horizon Farms using a recipe of only clean, simple ingredients.
This pork belly is so tender it can be pulled apart effortlessly with chopsticks, making it easy to enjoy its delicate texture and simple flavor. Thanks to the active lifestyle of pasture-raised pigs, the meat has a rich, satisfying taste, no seasoning necessary. The fatty portions melt in your mouth, offering extra flavor to the pleasant sweet and savory pork. In spite of that, these cuts are surprisingly light with none of the heaviness that braised pork belly sometimes has.
This dish is fully cooked and cut into bite-sized pieces for incredibly convenient meals—perfect for when you want one more dish at the table or need something quick for unexpected guests. Try over rice for a delicious pork belly rice bowl, shred and top with BBQ sauce for a quick and easy pulled pork sandwich, or use as the base for a Japanese twist on Taiwanese gua bao steamed pork buns.

Happy as a pig in mud. Bathing in the nearby river during summer and playing around on the snowfields in winter - that's the happy life of the pigs on the family-owned El Paso Ranch in Hokkaido that are raised completely free-range in the Tokachi area. And when we say free range we mean the real deal free-range. Spring, summer, autumn and winter - 24 hours, all year free-roaming on 30 hectares (75 acres) of land. The pigs are a slow and naturally grown British Camborough breed. They are fed a large variety of feed mixes that contain all kinds of grains, corn, soybeans, and other vegetables and farm produce (pigs can’t survive only on grass, so there won't be grass-fed pork any time soon). Newborn stay in a shelter together with their mother until they learn how to take care of themselves. No tail clipping of piglets, no gestation crates for sows. No factory farming. They receive all the respect, love and care. See for yourself, all images and videos are real.
