Linton Pasture Pork Presa — Cooking Guide

About This Product

Richly Marbled Heritage Pork with Exceptional Flavour. Our Linton Pasture Pork Presa is a premium, beautifully marbled cut taken from the shoulder area of the pig, often compared to a steak because of its rich marbling and juicy texture.

How to Cook It

  1. Remove from the fridge 30–40 minutes before cooking; pat dry and season.
  2. Sear in a hot, oiled pan or on the grill 3–4 minutes per side until well browned.
  3. Finish in a 180°C/350°F oven if the cut is thick, checking with a meat thermometer.
  4. Rest 5–10 minutes before slicing.

Chef's Tip

A brief brine or dry rub 30 minutes ahead makes a noticeable difference on leaner pork cuts.
