WHAT MAKES JAMON IBERICO SPECIAL? WHERE IS IT SOURCED FROM?
Iberico Pork is commonly called the “the wagyu” of pork because of its noticeable high marbling. This is due to the breed of the pork (Iberian) and how they are raised. We source these pork chops from the very best farms in Spain.
To be called Iberico" it must be from black Iberian pigs and raised in Portugal or Spain. We work with different farms like Farm “vera Vieja” which is located in Retamal de Llerena (Badajoz, Spain). This farm stretches over a vast and rich pasture that provides the highest quality acorns, grass and excellent grazing fields, which is where these pigs are raised eating acorns and grass!
At the end of the day, it is all about the genetics, the feed, and the lifestyle of the pork. Treating them just right, following humane practices, and allowing the animals to roam freely and happily. They grow slowly, and that makes Iberico pork much more expensive than what you will find at your local grocery store... and the difference is something you can taste. Iberico pork is tastier and healthier.

Most amazing pork I have ever eaten.
JFJohn F.Verified Buyer - Rated 5 out of 5 stars3 years agoIncredible!
I ordered the plumas a couple of weeks ago. Let me first say that the entire M&B team has been nothing short of exceptional. They went out of their way to help me with my order, offered advice on what delivery option to chose, and were incredibly gracious and helpful every single step of the way. My order arrived packed with ice blocks, and still rock solid frozen.
I made this today for Valentine's dinner. My husband INHALED it, and asked me when I could make it again at least 4 times during dinner. 😅❤️
Now, about the pluma... Buy it! Do it. DO IT! It is without a doubt the most tender, juicy, succulent cut of pork you'll ever eat. AND it's incredibly easy to prepare. No sauce needed, this pork is so flavorful, it needs absolutely nothing except a quick marinade with olive oil and fresh thyme, and a sprinkle of sea salt before you sear it.
Instructions : Thaw in fridge overnight. Remove the few strands of sinew if needed, and the really big pieces of fat on the surface of the meat. There will be plenty enough fat left (it's completely layered with it), and it will smoke less in your kitchen.
Let it come to room temp for at least 35min, marinating in a ziploc with a little olive oil (just a brush) and some fresh thyme.
In a hot pan with a Tbsp or two of olive oil, salt one side (sea salt) and sear it 4 min, salt top and flip it, 2 to 4 minutes on the other side, depending on the thickness. Use an instant read thermometer, take it off the heat at 120 °F, losely cover with…

Smoked at a low temp then finished in wood fire oven. Every product I have purchased from meat n bone has exceeded expectations in flavor and quality. Highly recommend.

MDMarty D.Verified Buyer - Rated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoVery unique product
This is a fantastic cut of pork, perhaps the best ever. But it is a challenge to cook it hot and fast enough to render all the fat properly but not so much that you over cook the meat. But once you get good at it your technique? Bruh, please. It’s like if babybacks and a Wagyu NY Strip had a baby.
RRRyan Riley T.Verified Buyer - Rated 5 out of 5 stars2 years agoOh my!
Let me start by saying that I’ve never spent this much money on just under a pound of pork. Well any meat for that matter. Having said that, I’m glad I did. It shipped well, cooked extremely easy and tasted amazing! We had a wonderful Valentines Day dinner. We also thought the Oyster Bay pino noir paired great with it. Thank you
