Neck End

Meat

Neck End

Neck-end shoulder is the collar-adjacent portion—marbled, cylindrical, superb for steaks, Korean boiled pork, and curing into coppa when the whole collar is taken. More intramuscular fat than centre loin. Slice into steaks and grill medium; roast whole; or cube for stew. The fat keeps slices juicy. For curing, follow tested salt formulas. Pair with fermented chilli, mustard, or vinegar to cut richness.
