A half leg of our locally reared hogget is an excellent choice for smaller gatherings, serving 4-6 people with ease. We cut our legs in half, leaving the shank on so the joint provides a wonderful variety of textures – from the rich, sticky shank to the lean, tender section that’s easy to carve.

Our exceptional, traditional breed hogget is between 12-24 months old and has had the best part of two springs and summers grazing on the wild flowers and grasses of this quiet corner of Suffolk. The extra grazing time really does make a huge difference to the flavour, which is excellent. 

Hung for over two weeks, the meat develops a remarkable tenderness and deep, full-bodied flavour, which is further enhanced when cooked on the bone. Whether slow-cooked for a melt-in-the-mouth experience or roasted in the traditional way, this joint delivers exceptional results. Remember to rest the joint after cooking to bring out its depth of flavour - it's worth the wait!
