Taste as a reward for good care
The origins of Livar, the Limburg monastery pig, lie at Lilbosch Abbey in Echt, Limburg. Since 1999, the abbey has worked with small-scale pig farmers in Limburg to raise Livar pigs. The special crossing of breeds, feed from regionally grown cereals and the highest possible care for animal welfare, gives our Livar meat the best quality and taste. You can taste that!

Just kidding, of course! Our lard is far too delicious to make hair dye from 😜
We'd like to take this opportunity to share the recipe for Livar rillettes with you. Because distinctive, that's certainly our rendered fat! Originally created as a way to preserve meat for longer, rillettes have grown to become a beloved classic in French cuisine. In this variation, we confited Livar chuck – along with other flavourings – at a low temperature in rendered Livar fat. The result is a creamy rillettes bursting with flavour 🤤

Originally created as a way to preserve meat for longer, rillettes have become a beloved classic in French cuisine. In this variation, we've slow-cooked Livar chuck – along with other flavourings – at a low temperature in melted Livar lard. The result is a smooth rillettes bursting with flavour. Recipe on our website! 🤤
