PORK RECIPES
They say that you can use everything from a pig except the squeal and, because it can be prepared in many different ways, it's one of the best value meats on the market. Contrary to beef or lamb, there are no categories or quality classifications for pork. The quality depends essentially on the feeding and care of the animal before slaughter. Good quality pork has a clear flesh of close texture and clean, white fat.
If you plan to produce a stuffed roast pork, here's a useful illustrated guide on How to Stuff Pork.
