Marinated neck steaks from herb pork
When prepared correctly, herb-cured pork neck steaks are juicy, flavorful pork steaks. They're especially suitable for pan-frying or grilling. The steaks are marinated in a paprika marinade that perfectly enhances their flavor.
The cut comes from the neck of the herb-treated pig, which gives the steaks their special quality. Our own rearing and slaughtering ensures species-appropriate animal husbandry at every stage, thus directly influencing the quality of the meat.
The characteristics of the neck steak
The neck, also known as the pork neck , is located directly behind the pig's head. This cut is marbled and has little connective tissue , giving it a juicy, flavorful quality. The natural fat veining makes the neck steak particularly well-suited for pan-frying.

Raising our herb pigs
Located in the idyllic Markgräflerland region, on the Engler family farm, the first pig hotel in southern Baden has been operating since 2019. Here, our pigs live in an animal welfare barn with spacious areas for rooting and relaxing. The barns are gradually being modernized to meet the highest animal welfare standards.
Every three weeks, around 240 piglets arrive, fed with local grain and home-grown corn. The pigs reach slaughter age at about seven months. Slow fattening, in contrast to the usual turbo-fattening, produces high-quality, particularly juicy meat.
Unlike industrial pig farming, which often relies on antibiotics, our closed system allows for antibiotic-free rearing. While conventional pork goes through six to seven stages before reaching the final consumer, our meat reaches the consumer directly through a maximum of two stages.
This quality product not only offers consumers a taste experience, but also ensures a reliable income for farmers and butchers. Our weekly requirement is approximately 100 pigs, 20 of which come from regional partner farms.
