Bacon chop with ramson pickle

A bacon chop is a very fine piece of meat and Peter Hannan’s sugar pit bacon chops and ribs are even finer but you need to be in Moira in Northern Ireland sadly which is certainly and experience and worth visiting Peter’s shop the Meat Merchant.

A good butcher should be able to make or lay his hands on a bacon chop with a twist of the arm.

You simply grill or pan fry bacon chops like you would a pork chop with seasoning them.

For the pickle

Makes a couple 1/2 litre preserving jars
