How We Raise Our Berkshire Pork
Our Berkshire pigs live the good life—rooting, roaming, and relaxing on open pasture under Colorado skies. They forage naturally and enjoy a diverse, nutrient-rich diet that includes grains and fresh vegetables grown right here on the farm. From crunchy carrots to leafy greens, we feed them what’s in season, supporting both their health and the land we steward.
This balanced approach honors the heritage of the Berkshire breed, known for its marbling, tenderness, and deep flavor. Grain provides essential energy, while fresh produce adds variety and vitality—resulting in pork that’s as wholesome as it is delicious.
We raise our pigs without hormones or antibiotics, with a commitment to ethical care, soil health, and full transparency. From pasture to plate, this is pork you can feel proud to serve.
What Is Berkshire Pork and Why the Hype?
Berkshire pork comes from a heritage breed prized for its exceptional flavor, tenderness, and rich marbling. Unlike conventional pork, Berkshire meat is darker, juicier, and more flavorful—often compared to fine beef for its depth and texture.
This breed traces its roots back over 300 years to England, where it was favored by royalty. Today, it’s celebrated by chefs and home cooks alike for producing pork that’s naturally succulent and full of character.
At 7 Anubis Farms, our Berkshire pigs are raised with care—on pasture, with a varied diet that includes grains and fresh vegetables. No shortcuts, no compromises. Just honest, heritage pork raised the way it should be.
Live Weight vs. Hanging Weight vs. Packaged Weight
Live Weight is the weight the pig is before butchering.
Hanging Weight is about 50-60% the weight of “live weight” or “on the hoof”).
Packaged Weight is about 55 – 62% of hanging weight depending on your custom cut instructions, like whether your cut instructions say “bone in” or "boneless" for example.
