Iberico pork cheeks are a unique cut of pork meat, being quite meaty yet surprisingly lean. The pork meat is deep red in colour and is exceptionally rich and full of flavour. They come from the free-range Iberico black pigs that wander the countryside of Southwestern Spain, feasting on sweet acorns. Iberico Pork is traditionally known as Carrillera Iberica and has the unique benefit of being a lean healthy pork meat without losing the acorn flavoured fat that gives it such a rich taste. Our pigs are ethically reared using entirely natural farming methods, living most of their lives outdoors and getting plenty of exercise in the ancient dehesa habitat, where they eat grass, herbs and lots of sweet acorns.

Delicious, tender and tasty! Braised for 3 hours in Sherry from recipe on website just enough for six people. Also bought Morcilla for a starter which was amazing.

The quality of the Iberico pork cheeks is excellent with wonderful marbling. They made a great stew. Sadly Parcelforce let you down with their delivery which was over a day late so that the cheeks had started to defrost. Fortunately I was using all three packs of the cheeks that weekend. From another review it seems as if this might happen fairly regularly, I would have a word with Parcelforce!

I am very satisfied with the quality of the produts, but your delivery system is terrible. I received a text from Parcelforce telling me that the goods will be delivered on the 28th; my wife stayed at home all day, no delivery. I received another text on the 29th telling me that the delivery would take place on the 29th between 11 and 12. Again my wife stayed home, and eventually had to go. Delivery actually took place at 14:58, and was given to the porter. It would not matter than much if it's weren't for the fact that the goods are frozen food. If you do not change your delivery system, I doubt that I will continue ordering from you, a shame

I found your website easy to use, delivery on time and well packaged. The meat was used as the main focus of an important meal and I am pleased to say it was absolutely wonderful, our friends and family who hadn't tried Iberico pork before were blown away with the flavour. I will be ordering again soon.
