Superior pork specialties made from the meat of free ranging, acorn fed Iberico pigs.
The producer, Dehesa Cordobesa, in El Valle de Los Padroches in Córdoba has 400,000 hectares of Holm oak forest. These oak trees produce acorns considered to be the sweetest in Spain. It is here that they allow their 100% purebred Ibérico pigs to roam freely. During autumn and winter, the pigs feed on acorns, which contributes to the meats juicy flavor and marbled appearance. The meat is dried and cured for 90 days to develop its unparalleled flavor.
Lomo Iberico de Bellota from Dehesa Cordobesa
The leanest of the cuts, Lomo is the loin of the pig which is cured 90 days and produced with paprika, as is customary in Spain. It is pink with some marbling of fat and a layer of fat around the edge. The only purebred loin in the U.S. market. Slice thinly.
Cabecero Iberico de Bellota from Dehesa Cordobesa
The cut of the pig with the most fat, Cabecero is the top loin of the Ibérico pig cured 90 days and produced with paprika. It is dark pink with more visible fat mixed in and very tender. It is the only cut of this nature here in the U.S. and not found often in Spain. Slice thinly.
