crackling fat

Greaves lard is made from the bacon of pigs. The remains of the fried bacon pieces, the so-called greaves, give the lard its widespread name. In Austria, greaves are also known as Grammeln, which is why the specialty is also called Grammel-Schmalz there. Typically, the greaves, or greaves, are fried together with diced onions and apples. At Freyberger, we also add our distinctive spice mixture to guarantee you the best taste experience.
We ensure that the spices are of the highest quality and mix each spice blend ourselves according to our traditional family recipe. We source our raw spices from a local spice shop so that we can precisely control the content and quality of our blend.

Depending on the region, there are different traditions regarding which tasty side dishes are served with lard bread. For example, fresh radishes or radishes go well with a fresh bread with cracklings. In some regions, the speciality is also garnished with pickles. Decide for yourself which side dish you want to enjoy your lard with and which recipes you prefer.
Spreadable sausages such as our crackling lard should be tempered before consumption. Take it out of the fridge half an hour before serving so that it can develop its spreadable consistency.
But crackling lard is not only a good spread. It is also suitable for frying and cooking and is used in various recipes. It gives your dishes a particularly intense flavour, because fat is known to be a flavour carrier that brings out our carefully selected spices particularly well.

You can order meat and sausage directly to your home from us. This means you can enjoy our delicious spread, which is of course refined with fresh apples and onions, even if you are not from Nuremberg.
Once you have received your delivery, you should store the lard in the refrigerator at a temperature below 6°C. The label will give you precise information on how long the lard will last. However, we guarantee that all of our products (unless otherwise stated) will last for three days after delivery if stored correctly.
Another important note: Fresh apples and onions are an important ingredient in the recipe for our delicious lard. Unfortunately, these ingredients mean that our crackling lard spoils more quickly than other types of the specialty. So it's best to eat it fresh from the jar.
