FILL YOUR FREEZER
Our pork box
Traditional cuts and newer favourites: joints for roasting and pulling, loin steaks, chops and more, in a box that works out at half a pig.
British pork, cut by our own butchers, labelled and packed ready for the freezer, with recipe ideas for every cut. It’s still one of the best-value ways to buy good meat.
FULL CIRCLE
Freezer boxes are where Anderton’s began. In the early 1970s, as home freezers arrived in kitchens across Lancashire, Brendan and Petrina made up deep-freeze meat orders in an outbuilding at Stydd Lee Farmhouse, Ribchester, and delivered them round the villages in their blue minivans. More than fifty years on, we’re packing freezer boxes again, with the same care.

GOOD FOR YOU
Pork and a balanced diet
Pork can be lean, and it provides ten vitamins and minerals.
- Some cuts, such as loin medallions and fillet, are low in fat (less than 3%) and low in saturated fat (less than 1.5%).
- Pork is rich in protein and naturally low in sodium.
- It’s rich in thiamine, niacin, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12, and a source of riboflavin, zinc, potassium, phosphorus, selenium and pantothenic acid.
