pig meat

noun British

: PORK

Collins and OED give the spelling pigmeat; Merriam Webster says it's BE and calls it pig meat. It's not in the other dictionaries (Cambridge, Oxford Learners, Macmillan).

I don't think you should look too deeply for a distinction; the man on the street calls it all pork. The three dictionaries essentially say pigmeat is a synonym for pork, Collins describing pigmeat as 'less common'. I've never heard anyone call it pigmeat.

The AHDB link that you posted seems to be making fine distinctions (that would only be of interest to people in the pork trade) between different types of pork products. See the key to the chart: pork, bacon, ham, sausages and offal (pigmeat). That suggests pigmeat is being used to mean offal (but the opening paragraph talks about pigmeat and offal - ???).

Ich denke es gibt hier kein richtig oder falsch wenn beide Schreibweisen verwendet werden.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/pigmeat

The meat or flesh of a pig, used especially for food; pork.

Schweinefleisch allgemein nach der Schlachtung

pig heist das Schwein das noch lebendig herum rennt.

pork oder pork meat ist das Schweinefleisch das im Handel verkauft wird.

affol sind die Schweinereste, alles ausser Muskelfleisch, insbesondere Innereien und was weiterverarbeitet wird.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offal

Offal (/ˈɒfəl/), also called variety meats, pluck or organ meats, is the organs of a butchered animal. The word does not refer to a particular list of edible organs, which varies by culture and region, but usually excludes muscle.

...

The word shares its etymology with several Germanic words: West Frisianôffal, German Abfall (Offall in some Western German dialects and in Luxembourgish), afval in Dutch and Afrikaans, avfall in Norwegian and Swedish, and affald in Danish. These Germanic words all mean "garbage/rubbish" or "waste", or—literally—"off-fall", referring to that which has fallen off during butchering.

FWIW, im Link im OP wird in den Balkendiagrammen aufgeschlüsselt nach :

 ...  Pork (total fresh)

  Bacon (total)

  Processed hams, etc.

  Pork (total frozen)

  Sausages (total)

  Offal (pigmeat) ...

no me bre, I already said EXACTLY that in my #1!

I think there's a mistake in the body of the text in #0: I think the question is the distinction between pork & pig()meat (as in the subject line), which are the terms used in the link, and not pork and pork meat, which jochenin erroneously talks about in the Kommentar field.
