Premium Pork Products

Heralded as the “Wagyu of Pork,” Stillwater Farm pork products will be marketed as premium, health-conscious, and artisan-quality offerings:

  • Whole Party Pig (≈75lbs.)– A specialty smoked delicacy featuring the whole young pig

    • $3.75 per pound on the hoof. The piglets will be delivered with a skinned clean carcass. The piglets can be smoked at your place or ours.  Stillwater Farm will handle the smoking process with a prescription of hickory, pecan, oak, and sassafras wood.   Smoking in our legendary smokehouse and cooking in our smoker for $125 is a good deal. Cooked down it produces 50% of the on the hoof weight of  delicious, smoke flavored pork to feed a crowd of people. What a deal!!!

  • Smoked Country Hams–Stillwater Farm country hams are smoked with a mixture of woods and cured for at least 300 days. 

    • Hams sell for $15 per lb.  It takes a long time to get the twang of this smoke and cure just right.  It is a rarity in Texas and deep south to have this cured meat that is famous in the Appalachians.  Even in the Appalachians one will not find Iberico hams.

  • Aged Ham (Proscuitto Style)– Cured for at least 400 to 500 days in a temperature and humidity controlled room.

    • Iberico Prosciutto style can cure literally for 3 to 4 years without going rancid as would heritage breed pork and sell for $1500 to $2,000 per ham.  It sells for $25 per lb. and can be cut to order.  Understandably the longer it cures the more expensive the ham.

  • Select Cuts– These cuts are sold to restaurants for specialty dishes and to retailers stores

    • See website for retail sales and wholesales are negotiable.

  • Direct-to-Consumer Sales– via an online store (premium bundles and curated offerings)

    • See website for retail sales pricing.

  • Strategic Principle:  Stillwater Farm is committed to avoiding commercial/auction barn markets and intends to sell only into premium channels that reflects the quality of the product.
