The Mangalitsa is a Hungarian breed of domestic pig that was created by crossing a Hungarian pig with a wild European boar. These pigs are known for their coarse "sheep like" coat and their meat that has been referred to as the "Kobe Beef" of the pig industry. At our farm we breed both Blonde and Red Mangalitsa. We work closely with Barbara Meyer Zu Altenschildesche of the Netherlands and Jeffrey Korsmit of New Zealand to import new breeding lines from overseas.

DEAL OF THE DAY :: 20lbs of Mangalitsa Sausage for $80!!

Mangalitsa Lard Biscuits & Gravy

Lard Biscuits
1. Heat the oven to 400 degrees.

2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Using a pastry cutter or fork, cut in the lard until it is reduced to pea-sized pieces. Stir in the buttermilk and 1 egg just to form a dough.

3. Remove the dough to a well-floured surface, and pat to a thickness of about 1 inch. Cut out biscuits using a 2-inch round cutter and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing the biscuits about 1 1/2 inches apart. The recipe makes about 1 dozen biscuits on the first pass. (Rolling the scraps can give you a dozen or more biscuits.) Beat the remaining egg with a few tablespoons of buttermilk to form the egg wash. Brush the biscuits with the egg wash, and sprinkle over the cracked pepper and fleur de sel.

4. Bake the biscuits until puffed and golden, 12 to 17 minutes, rotating the tray halfway for even baking.

Sausage Gravy
1. In a dry skillet, cook the sausage over medium-high heat until the fat is rendered and the sausage is golden-brown, about 10 minutes. Add the shallot, garlic, black pepper, chile and thyme. Cook until the shallot is translucent and the herbs are aromatic, 1 to 2 minutes.

2. Sprinkle the flour over and briefly cook, stirring to mix well, about 2 minutes. Slowly drizzle over the warm milk, whisking to mix well so lumps don’t form; the milk will begin to thicken quickly. Bring the mixture down to a simmer and continue to cook for 5 minutes. Taste and season as desired with salt before serving.

ᴋᴇᴇᴘɪɴɢ ᴀ ᴛʀᴀᴅɪᴛɪᴏɴ ᴀʟɪᴠᴇ.

“Growing up in rural Romania, I was always surrounded by pigs—as most of us in Romania were. For generations, pigs have been the most popular animal to keep in the countryside. I remember watching my grandparents carrying out the tradition of killing a pig every year before Christmas. They'd prepare for the killing by neatly placing a burner, a couple of knives, and some wire next to the pig pen. They would put some straw under the pig to catch the blood, and I would hold the pig by its tied-up legs while either my grandmother or my grandfather gave the animal a so-called neck pocket with a knife, which translates to: slitting its throat. I can't say I particularly enjoyed seeing a creature die in front of me, but whenever I was there to help my grandparents kill the pig, they'd praise me profusely for taking my first steps into manhood. That filled me with enough pride to take part in the ritual. And I know it's not pretty, but my moral apprehensions about it mostly disappeared the first moment I tasted pork crackling and was able to supply for my family for the year to come.”

Every year between Thanksgiving and Christmas, we welcome many groups of men with Romanian heritage to our farm to carry out this tradition that they remember growing up. They share stories of the memories they have as young men back in Romania at the annual slaughter with their father, grandfather, and great grandfather. They take pride in using their own hands to supply for their family. They take pride in continuing the tradition that was passed down from their ancestors. To them, it is not just slaughtering a pig. This day is a holiday, something they look forward to for months.

Our hats go off to them for keeping this tradition alive and well.

Our pigs are pasture raised and barley finished the proper way with zero corn or soy in their diets.

The meat of the Mangalitsa is impeccably flavored, rich in color, and extreme high in marbling... It’s no wonder it is referred to as the “Kobe Beef of Pork.”

7-11LB Pork Butt
1-2LB Pork Back Ribs
3LB Bratwurst (that’s 15 brats total)
4LB Deliciously Seasoned Pork Sausage

Our Story

In 2015, Sterling Hunter Mangalitsa founder, Jim Reichenbach, reconnected with a long lost acquaintance who sparked his interest in the Mangalitsa breed. Jumping in head first, Jim purchased a Blonde breeding pair and a barrow to feed out for his family. Within a year numbers grew quickly with the addition of three blonde gilts and an imported Red breeding pair from the Netherlands. Today, Sterling Hunter runs over ten pure Mangalitsa breeding sows specializing in the Blonde and Red variants.

All of our hogs are pasture raised with plenty of room to roam and graze. We allow our sows to farrow out in pasture or in large indoor pens depending on the time of year. We do not use farrowing crates, notch ears, dock tails, or snip teeth.

Sterling Hunter Mangalitsa sells Pure Blonde, Pure Red, and Blonde Red cross breeding stock as well as feeders. All of our breeding stock we sell comes with a certificate of lineage from the farm detailing their ancestry, so when there is a Mangalitsa registry in the United States, you will have no problem getting your animal registered! We also offer DNA parentage testing through GeneSeek to prove parentage tracing back to the original imports. In addition to our purebred program, we also have a few registered Duroc sows that we cross with the Mangalitsa to produce a slightly leaner more affordable meat.

Apart from the feeders and breeders we also sell butcher ready hogs by the half and whole as well as individual cuts. Our fat hogs are finished no earlier than 15 months of age and are fed a barley based diet with zero corn or soy.
