Meat lovers have come to know and enjoy pulled pork and chicken nuggets separately, but Tillman's is now bringing these two products together for the creation of a new meat nugget hybrid.
The brand's Pulled Pork Nuggets were recently launched at Anuga 2017, the world's largest food trade fair, introducing an entirely new way to consume the popular type of pork. Pulled pork may now be consumed within a breaded nugget, offering a high-protein and adult take on what has typically been regarded as a children's finger food. To differentiate the alternative meat nuggets from their classic chicken counterparts, this Tillman's product is branded with medallions that include the silhouette of a pig and a promise to deliver "BBQ Taste."
The bite-sized pork nuggets are packaged with a ketchup condiment from Heinz for serving.
