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 Iberico pork cheeks. Very tender, almost purple in colour and deeply savoury. I served them with a chestnut flour sauce (memories of Cuenca) and everyone loved them.

The cheeks were beautiful, came all boxed in ice packs, will definitely be ordering from them again, might try the suckling pig

Not as flavourful as any other Iberico meat when on grill but good money for value! Strongly recommended for slow cooking.

Absolutely delicious. Fried them off and slow cooked for three hours in Pedro Ximinez sherry and beef stock. The meat was so tender and full of flavour. Would be perfect for an alternative Christmas meal.
