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.

Melts in the mouth, absolutely gorgeous. Always cook this on the BBQ but I keep a close eye on it moving it around as it cooks so as not to burn. Due to the gorgeous fat content flare ups do happen. Make sure you cook slightly pink still it is beautiful. We just can’t get enough of this.

Amazing flavour - not like regular pork. Grilled with a bit of salt, pepper and garlic and was amazing.

Such a delicious versatile meat. We cook it for korean barbecue, but also to make char siu, or thai-style grilled meat.
