Hot Smoked Pork Ears, Biovela
A Lithuanian beer-snack classic — chewy, gelatinous, deeply smoky.
LITHUANIA · BIOVELA · 250 G
What it is
Whole pork ears, gently cured and then hot-smoked over hardwood by Biovela, one of Lithuania's largest and most respected meat houses. Hot smoking cooks the ears through while the smoke perfumes the skin and cartilage with that unmistakable Baltic aroma. The result is a snack with a serious texture — springy and gelatinous from the cartilage, with crisp golden-brown edges and a clean, savoury smokiness.
Across Lithuania, Latvia and beyond, smoked pork ears are a beloved companion to cold beer — the kind of bar snack you slice into thin strips and share around the table. They are equally at home in a home kitchen: thinly sliced over warm boiled potatoes with a knob of butter, tossed through a hearty bean salad, or chopped into a thick smoky broth in the last minutes of cooking. A vacuum-packed Baltic deli staple that keeps well in the fridge.
