Mangalitsa Ham — Naturally Smoked Heritage Pork
Our Mangalitsa ham starts long before the smokehouse — it starts with how we raise the pigs.
At Honey Pot Farmstead, we raise purebred Mangalitsa hogs, a heritage lard breed known for rich marbling, old-world flavor, and natural tenderness. Our pigs are pasture-raised in Central Texas, slow-grown outdoors to full maturity — never rushed, never confined.
Just as important as how they live is what they eat. Our hogs are fed a clean, intentional diet designed to support healthy fat development and deep, natural flavor — without industrial shortcuts, confinement, or filler feeds.
The result is a ham that doesn’t resemble supermarket pork — richly marbled, deeply savory, and naturally juicy with real heritage character.
