Iberico pork chop

What is an Iberico pork chop?

An Iberico pork chop - chuleta de cerdo - is a bone-in pork chop from the famous Spanish Iberico breed. An Iberico pork cutlet cannot be compared to the (also tasty) cutlets we know in the Netherlands. Iberico meat is actually comparable to Japanese Wagyu beef. Laced with fat and with its own unique taste. Nutty, because of the many acorns that Iberico pigs eat. You really should try an Iberico pork chop!

Iberico pork

This pork chop comes from the famous Iberico pig, from the southwest of Spain. Iberico is one of the most tasty free-range breeds in the world. The animal owes this taste to its lifestyle and Mediterranean environment. The Iberico pig is dark brown with black hooves and is descended from the wild boar. They are small in size, but all the more voluminous. An adult Iberico pig easily weighs 160 to 180 kilos! The Iberico pig feeds itself on grass, tubers, herbs and sometimes even olives. However, the real work begins in autumn, when the acorns (bellotas) fall from the old oak trees. An Iberico pig eats 10 kilos of acorns per day (!). This gives Iberico that recognizable nutty taste and it provides a nice fat veining. Fat is the flavor carrier of meat and the Iberico pig illustrates this like no other. Try an Iberico pork chop and you will never want anything else!
