Pata Negra pork Secreto is one of the most sought-after cuts of Iberian pork.
Located between the shoulder and the belly, this cut owes its name to the fact that it was once considered a true butcher's "secret." Highly marbled, it has a natural intramuscular fat that melts during cooking, providing exceptional juiciness.
Pata Negra pork is renowned for the delicacy of its meat, its deep flavor, and its particularly tender texture. The Secreto perfectly showcases these qualities, offering generous, flavorful meat with a subtle nutty note.
It is best cooked over high heat, on the barbecue, plancha, or in a pan. A few minutes on each side is enough to achieve a lovely caramelized crust while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
A must-try cut for lovers of Iberian pork and characterful grilled meats.
