Red Wattle Pork at Idle River Farms
Believed to originate from the islands of New Caledonia in the Pacific Ocean, Red Wattle pork–so named for the appendages that dangle from either side of their jowls–were thought to be extinct after having flourished in New Orleans in the 1700s and 1800s. Bred for their flavor by the New Orleanians in a by-gone era, they were discovered in the 1970s wandering the woodlands of eastern Texas. Traditionally, Red Wattles have been a breed set apart for their ability to produce excellent meat and, in particular, charcuterie.
Chantelle (verified owner) –
This is by far our favorite pork! We’ve tried others and keep coming back to the Red Wattle. When we order we do very little smoking and season the bulk sausage ourselves. The flavor of the meat can stand on it’s own without a lot of extra fussing. Someone once said the bacon is better than chocolate. I was skeptical but after trying it, I can’t argue with that statement. The customer service of Meat Market of West Michigan is fantastic! You won’t be disappointed!
