We think it tastes like a beautiful marriage between a ribeye steak and a slab of bacon. Ibérico de Bellota pork is famed for its marbling and no other cut displays this more deliciously than the secreto.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can find other Ibérico pork on the market, but if it is not Bellota, it is not the acorn-fed finest quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe secret? Special black Spanish Ibérico pigs wander the 'dehesa' forests of southwest Spain munching on herbs and grasses and piles of rich acorns. Not only are they the happiest pigs on earth, but this acorn diet adds wonderful flavor to the pork. And all that exercise fosters the marbling that makes Ibérico so special.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMontaraz Ibérico de Bellota pork is high in mono-unsaturated fats that melt at low temperatures and is healthier than the fat from normal pork. The secreto has so much marbling it has a bacon-like flavor but is much more complex because of the acorn diet on which the animals grazed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe secreto is a small, thin cut that is hard to locate on the pigs, which is why it is called the ‘secret.’ It should be grilled or cooked in a cast iron skillet at medium high heat until the fat melts away and the secreto is slightly charred. Serve with a good red wine and crusty bread to mop up the juices.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eTwo pieces, ships frozen.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe USDA recommends cooking all whole cuts of meat (including pork) to 145°F as measured with a food thermometer placed in the thickest part of the meat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMontaraz pork is certified Prop 12 compliant, which means the animals are raised with care, meeting or exceeding the animal welfare standards set by California Proposition 12.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Montaraz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51360186368288,"sku":"70040","price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/9901\/6480\/files\/SECRETO_IBERICO_PASTURE_RAISED_2.jpg?v=1773945988","url":"https:\/\/bemkafoods.myshopify.com\/products\/secreto-iberico-pork-steak-1-5-lb-pc","provider":"Bemka","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
