Producers of very fine British cured meats, chorizo & sausages

British Chorizo

Hello and welcome to The Bath Pig website

Since you are here, then it may just be that you share our love for cured meats.

Tim French and I love them so much we tried making our own. After converting a cupboard into a make-shift curing room, we set about making some great Chorizo (and some not so good!). A year and half later, we are proud to introduce you to our fantastic range of delicious BRITISH Chorizo.

As you browse through our piggy website you'll be able to find out why we do what we do and why we hope you will love what we do as much as we do! If that isn't a big enough mouthful for you to chew on, then you just wait until you try our incredibly moorish (OK Spanish-ish) BRITISH Chorizo!

Please give us a call on 0800 678 5823 or send an email for more information.

Is it a Cooking Chorizo or is a Slicing Chorizo? Well, actually it’s both!

We decided in the Spring this year to make your choice of 'which chorizo to buy' a little bit easier. It also made our production much simpler too! We experimented with a new curing method and timescale and now cure them for just the right amount of time, so that there is enough moisture in the sausage to make it great to cook with but still dry enough to be safe to eat raw and distribute without refrigeration.
