History & Origins
Founded in 2019 by two entrepreneurs from Rotherham, Beerpig emerged when co‑founder John Walker discovered that warming pork scratchings significantly enhanced their flavour.
What started as a kitchen experiment evolved into supplying scratchings warmed straight from a purpose‑built cabinet in over 250 UK pubs. Including one my wife and I were visiting today when we first found out about Beerpig pork scratchings.
Even during the pandemic they pivoted swiftly to online sales and Amazon, earning rave reviews and expanding rapidly

Tasting Notes
Expect a rich, golden crunch with each and every bite. Beerpig scratchings are high‑protein, low‑carb, and lighter than you’d think, thanks to their carefully balanced fat content.
From Amazon reviews, fans love the texture and value, though a few pieces may be softer inside the curl, most pieces are crispy and flavourful. The jar is often described as handy to reuse, too
Serving Suggestions
Warmed in‑pub via Beerpig’s custom cabinet, served in porcelain dishes to cut plastic use and enhance presentation
At home, open the jar and nibble straight from it—great for pairing with ales or craft beers, or even repurposing crushed scratchings in cooking
Innovation meets tradition: warm scratchings bring a modern twist to a classic snack
Consistently high quality: from sourcing to cooking and serving
Gift appeal: the presentation jars have proven popular as unique and well‑received gifts
