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

4.9 Rating 292 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.

These are great cooked on the BBQ but be aware of the flare ups and don’t take your eye off them else you may have a roaring fire. Cook slightly pink and rested well they melt in the mouth. I’ve bought these for a few years now and we love them. As with everything they have gone up in price quite a bit so I definitely look out for offers.

This meat is ridiculous. It's an expensive treat but is also like no other pork you have ever tried. Unctuous and packed with flavour. I sliced it thin the first time and guests griddled their slices at the table. Just received my 2nd one and am still deciding what to do with it. Stunning and worth the money

The easy way to make a BBQ something very special. It just melts in the mouth with a rich nutty sweetness.

When I serve Secreto from Basco to guests it always blows them away. So juice, tender and flavourful. All it needs is good quality salt and olive oil and then quick hot heat on the barbecue. Rested well, served pink and sliced across the grain with a simple salsa verde if you fancy. Mouth watering
