Berkshire Pork Lard

Pure, clean, and crafted the old-fashioned way — our Berkshire Pork Lard is rendered in small batches from heritage-breed Berkshire pork raised at R Family Farms in Kansas. Naturally rich and silky, this lard delivers unmatched flavor and performance for frying, baking, and cooking.

It’s the same lard we use to cook our famous French fries at our restaurant in Lebanon, Kansas — golden, crispy, and packed with flavor you just can’t get from vegetable oils. Whether you’re frying, baking, or roasting, Berkshire lard adds a level of depth and quality only real pork fat can bring.

Unlike processed shortenings, true pork lard has a neutral, buttery taste and high smoke point, making it a favorite among chefs and home cooks alike.
