Pork Stew Meat

Average Weight Per Pack 1lb

Pork stew meat is a versatile, flavorful cut that becomes tender and rich when cooked low and slow. Usually cut into bite-sized cubes from the shoulder or other well-marbled areas, it is ideal for hearty stews, braises, soups, chili, and slow-cooker meals. Brown the meat in batches before adding broth, vegetables, and seasonings to build a deeper flavor. For the best texture, simmer it gently until fork-tender—typically 1½ to 2½ hours on the stovetop, or according to your slow cooker or pressure cooker instructions. Keep raw pork refrigerated, cook it to a safe internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) followed by a three-minute rest, and use leftovers within three to four days.
