Behind the Blend: The Story & Uses of Pigasus

 

In the rolling hills of Herndon’s Hollow, there’s a tale told of a winged pig who brings flavor wherever he flies. Known to the locals as Pigasus, this magical creature isn't just a legend — he’s the namesake of our boldly balanced pork seasoning.


Whether you're grilling up chops, roasting a tenderloin, or trying something new, Pigasus brings a grounded herbiness with a lift of subtle heat. Let’s take a closer look at what makes this blend soar.

The Flavor Profile
Pigasus was crafted to complement pork without overpowering it. It combines classic herbs, a hint of garlic, and just enough spice to make things interesting — without being hot.
It’s incredibly versatile — the kind of blend you’ll reach for even when pork isn’t on the menu.

🍽️ How to Use Pigasus
Here are some of our favorite ways to let this flying pig shine:
🐖 Grilled Pork Chops: Rub Pigasus generously on both sides of your chops before grilling. Let it rest for 15–30 minutes to allow the herbs to bloom before the meat hits the fire.
🥓 Roasted Pork Tenderloin: Mix Pigasus with a bit of olive oil and coat the tenderloin before roasting. Add a little honey or maple syrup to the mix for a sweet-savory glaze.
🍳 Breakfast Sausage: Blend it right into ground pork for homemade sausage patties that are full of herb-forward flavor. Add a pinch of brown sugar if you like a hint of sweetness.
🥔 Roasted Veggies or Potatoes: Pigasus isn’t just for meat! Sprinkle over baby potatoes or root vegetables before roasting.

🐷 Why the Name?
The Hollow has its share of fantastical creatures, but none so beloved as the mighty Pigasus — a reminder that even the most humble ingredients can take flight when handled with care. Just like pork, this blend is dependable, flavorful, and more magical than it might first appear.
