FRIENDS OF HOT SMOKED
SNOUT & TROTTER

Snout and Trotter is owned and run by the Jopling family on their smallholding in West Devon. They breed and hand rear their own free range, rare breed pigs and produce the highest quality british pork products. No unnecessary chemicals, preservatives or additives are used. The pigs are allowed to develop and grow slowly in the belief that quality of life leads to a better quality of pork. Pork products can be produced to customers' specific requirements plus a range of smoked products are also available together with livestock and butchery courses. They also offer a high quality holiday let in one of the most beautiful parts of Devon. In summer 2009, Hot Smoked purchased four rare breed Oxford Sandy and Black piglets, two of which are now the subject of curing and smoking experiments - of which more in due course. We have also invested in two breeding sows, both of which produced healthy litters this March. Contact the Joplings on 01837 851 288 or email them at

PIGBOARDS.CO.UK
An original range of handmade, wooden pig boards and pig sticks in a variety of colours and finishes. This is essential pig-keeping equipment for moving pigs around on the farm, for showing or at auctions. The range was developed locally in Devon by Rick Vause after taking on a few pigs and finding that only plastic versions were available to buy. This smart new wooden solution is both strong and practical and a children's size is also available. For more details visit www.pigboards.co.uk , call 07958 340865 or email rick@pigboards.co.uk.
