Autumn is the perfect time to enjoy pork, which pairs wonderfully with cozy fall flavors and fruits like warming sage and thyme, tart apples and sweet squash.

Some of our favorite pork cuts for the Fall are bacon ends, breakfast sausage, italian sausage, ham, and ribs.

Below, we've included a few of our family's favorite pork recipes, including classic pork chops paired with apple for a savory sweet best.

Autumn is an ideal time to enjoy slow cooker favorites like BBQ ribs or pulled pork shoulder roasts. Use either country style or spare ribs in the recipe below.

The breakfast and italian sausages (bulk) are perfectly seasoned for a simple, easy dinner solution. Simply fry them up and pair them with whatever vegetables you have - squash, brussel sprouts, apples, onions, carrots, cabbage....we have a few recommended combinations in the recipes below.

Bacon ends or ham steak, too, are the perfect addition to cozy favorites like mac and cheese, potato soup, loaded baked beans, etc. Plus, save the bacon grease for cooking other goodies like the incredibly moist and flavorful pumpkin muffins.

And just in time for the holidays, Grandma's famous pie crust. This recipe makes 4 crusts for two pies, using all natural, premium lard.

Where to Find Riemer Family Farm Eggs!

Just look for the PINK carton at a grocery store near you! The egg business has been crazy lately to say the least! It seems like every third news story is about the price of eggs and shortages and even thievery of eggs! Who knew there could be so much drama around the humble chicken egg? We partner with a young farm family to produce our seasonally pastured eggs. These hens have a pretty posh life, non-GMO feed, plenty of space, never any cages and are out and about during the growing season. The bird flu outbreak is just another bit of evidence that the industrial food system is very broken! One of the solutions is MORE farmers on the land raising livestock at a family scale and not more concentrated factory agriculture in the U.S. Barns of tens and even hundreds of thousands of chickens are the ones primarily affected by the bird flu for all the obvious reasons! When 150,000 or more birds are together in a barn when one or a few get infected it's a matter of hours before the whole flock is infected and all must be destroyed. Family farms came through for customers during Covid and are proving to be resilient during this current egg problem too! While we are still learning and don't claim to be perfect, we are more sustainable and adaptable than the factory model of farming. Thank you for standing by our farm and other regenerative farms in your area! If you would like to purchase (or dine on) our eggs you can find them at many stores and restaurants! Including: South Central WI: Brodhead Piggly Wiggly Gempeler's Market-Monticello Roy's Market-New Glarus Evansville Piggly Wiggly Oregon Hy-Vee Fitchburg Hy-Vee Cadre restaurant (and others through a distributor) Sunrise Cafe-Monroe N. Illinois: Bull Valley General Store Daily Project Cafe-Algonquin Duck A Diet, Ready to Eat Meals-Huntly Forest Green's Juice Bar-Lake Bluff Just look for the PINK carton. With all the egg shortages from the industrial farms and spiking prices from a fragile industry, our eggs are quite affordable. We will never price gouge. We seek to provide a fair price for both our customers and us. As always you can pick up your eggs on the farm. Please place an order on our website and we will have them ready for you within a day. Make sure that you have Riemer Family Farm as your pickup location.
