How to Use Pork Heart
For human consumption, pork heart is a lean, flavorful cut that works well in stews, stir-fries, or slow-cooked dishes. Slice it thinly and sauté with onions, garlic, and spices for a quick, nutrient-packed meal. Its tender texture and rich flavor also make it ideal for pairing with bold seasonings or marinades.
For dogs, pork heart is an excellent source of taurine, an amino acid critical for heart health. Incorporate pork heart as 10-15% of your dog’s raw diet, balancing it with other proteins and organ meats. Freeze portions for easy meal prep, and introduce gradually to ensure proper digestion.
