Secreto Iberico (1kg) - Acorn-Flavored Iberian Pork Loin Cut Reviews

4.9 Rating 291 Reviews
Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

Secreto Iberico is a prized cut from the top of the Iberian pig's loin. Located near the fat, it is often referred to as the 'hidden gem' of Iberico pork. This thin cut sizzles on the grill, releasing acorn-flavored juices that infuse the pork with a rich, delicious taste. Iberico pigs, which are indigenous to southwest Spain, graze in dehesa forests and feed on a diet of herbs, grasses, and acorns. Their active lifestyle and acorn-rich diet contribute to the pork's exceptional marbling and unique flavor. The secreto is similar to a tender skirt steak, with a texture that is both tender and slightly chewy. The mono-unsaturated fats in acorn-fed Iberico pork are healthier than those in regular pork and melt at low temperatures, making this a delicious and healthy choice.

Having been blown away by Basco's cheeks, I decided to buy the Secreto because I saw it described as 'tocino', which is one of my wife's favourite cuts of pork. Wow... She was blown away, as were my son and daughter, who were also brought up as tocino fans. Yet again the meat was so delicious and as tender as it is possible for meat to be.

Great product! We ate this cut of meat all the time when in Spain, so was a real treat to get it in the UK. Will be ordering again!
