Bath chaps are a traditional West Country meat dish, made from the lower cheek of a pig. They were originally made from Gloucestershire Old Spot pigs, until the breed became endangered. The meat is typically brined and then cooked, and is often served cold and sliced, similar to ham.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
