Proper Pigs Heart
Our proper pigs hearts are such an underused cut. Heart is of course actually a muscle and is therefore much more like a steak than like liver. Cooked hot over flames heart can take on a complex flavour that is so underrated.
Traditional methods of preparing heart also include stuffing and braising the heart till they fall apart and tenderise.
Don't be afraid though to cook your heart pink!
The heart is one of the most nutrient dense parts of the animal and is full of critical goodness.

Defrosting
Best: leave it in its vacuum pack on a plate on the bottom shelf of the fridge. Chops, rashers and small packs take about 12 hours; joints can take 24 hours or more.
Quicker: keep it in the vacuum pack and submerge it in cold tap water, changing the water every 30 minutes. Cook it straight away once defrosted.
Never defrost meat at room temperature.
