Chorizo Stick

Savour the exquisite flavours of Tempus Chorizo Stick, a true masterpiece made with the highest quality ingredients. Tempus aimed to create a chorizo that's both familiar and distinctive, infused with delicate Tempus spicing. Tempus recipe features a harmonious blend of premium pork, smoked and sweet paprika, garlic, black pepper, nutmeg, oregano, and a hint of cayenne, providing a delightful kick of flavour.

Discover a hint of heat in this chorizo, a nod to the British love for a little warmth, as evident from the overwhelming response to Tempus No. 8. This chorizo is fully cured and ready to enjoy as is, but its true magic is unleashed when it meets the heat of your kitchen. Its incredible versatility allows you to effortlessly infuse dishes with rich, smoky, and meaty goodness. The subtle tanginess from fermentation, coupled with the heady garlicky goodness, makes each bite an unforgettable experience.

Tempus uses only ex-breeding sows and ex-dairy beef in their charcuterie, which in the case of the pigs means animals that are often in excess of 4 years old and weigh more than 180kg. The beef comes from animals that can be up to 14 years of age. It is simply impossible for younger or smaller animals to match their levels of marbling, fat ratios, and intensity of flavour. This is fundamental to Tempus. They only use animals at the end of their lives.

In addition to their technical expertise, they are passionate about the flavour and use carefully blended spices to enhance this wonderful meat to produce a range of uniquely Tempus products. In their custom-built facility in Weybridge, they butcher, ferment, cure, and age all of their products. Some of these products can take over a year to mature.
