Iberico Pork Secreto: A Hidden Gem of Flavour!

Iberico Pork Secreto, often referred to as the 'butcher's secret', is a highly coveted cut known for its marbling and exceptional taste. Sourced from the prized Iberico pig, this cut is hidden between the shoulder blade and the loin, making it a rare and exquisite find. The acorn-rich diet of the Iberico pigs imparts a nutty, buttery flavour to the meat, while its perfect marbling ensures a tender, juicy texture. This cut is ideal for quick, high-heat cooking methods that highlight its natural flavours.
