Abanico Iberico is the outer layer that wraps around Iberico ribs. It's a thin, marbled piece of meat that's perfect for grilling, producing juicy and crispy slices of pork. The name 'Abanico' comes from its fan-like shape, reminiscent of a traditional Spanish hand fan. These indigenous black Iberico pigs roam the dehesa forests of southwest Spain, feeding on herbs, grasses, and acorns. Their diet contributes to the wonderful flavor of the pork, while their exercise helps create the marbling that makes Iberico so special. Abanico has a rich, complex flavor profile, with notes of grasses, herbs, and acorns. It's high in mono-unsaturated fats that melt at low temperatures, making it a healthier option than regular pork. Abanico is best grilled or cooked over low heat to bring out its full flavor.

“Excellent, fantastic meat. We ate it medium rare and it was about the best meat I have had. It was juicy and tasty. Loved it am now looking forward to the lamb we just ordered.”

“A superb cut of pork, the fat rendered away on the bbq grill and was beautiful. Don't expect fillet steak tender, but I cooked this medium rare and the complex flavours and texture were perfect.”

“Super tasty. Just seasoned this, popped it on the barbecue (it comes in pieces about 200-300g) seared it on a nice high heat with some flames under it, the fat renders and you get a nice crispy outside - mouthwatering...”
