Frequently Asked Questions

About Curing Rebels

Everything we make comes out of our dockside HQ in Brighton, UK. Our team, butcher, ferment, cure and smoke on site using high welfare British meat and responsibly sourced fish.

What makes you different?

We don’t follow the rulebook. Curing Rebels is built on flavour, ethics and craft - not shortcuts. Every product is made in small batches with the care and curiosity of a kitchen, not a factory.

Our Ingredients

Storage & Serving

How should I store your products?

Keep unopened packs of charcuterie away from direct sunlight in an ambient or chilled environment. Once opened, rewrap and store in the fridge. Our charcuterie is best enjoyed at room temperature so take it out 30 minutes before serving to let the flavours shine.

How long will it last?

Charcuterie: each item will have an individual best before date which is usually approx 8 weeks from receipt. Charcuterie has a long shelf life when stored correctly (cool, dark place. Wrapped if opened). Once opened, consume within 3 days.

Smoked salmon: our smoked salmon has an approximate 20 day shelf life (salmon pate has seven days) and is best eaten within a week of opening.
