Iberico de Bellota pork is famed for its beautiful marbling and no other cut displays this more deliciously than the 'secreto'. While it comes from the shoulder area, it has a lot of similarities to a tender skirt steak.Indigenous black Iberico pigs wander the 'dehesa' forests of southwest Spain munching on herbs, grasses and most importantly, acorns. Not only are they the happiest pigs on earth, but this diet adds wonderful flavor to the pork. And all that exercise fosters the marbling that makes Iberico so special.The acorn and herb flavored pork is high in mono-unsaturated fats that melt at low temperatures, and is more healthy than the fat from normal pork. The 'secreto' has so much marbling it has a bit of a bacon-like flavor, but much more complex because of the grasses, herbs and acorns on which the animals grazed.The 'secreto' cut is a small, thin cut that is hard to locate on the pigs, thus the name. It should be grilled or cooked in a cast iron skillet at medium high heat. Serve with a good red wine and crusty bread to mop up the juices.Two pieces, ships frozen.The USDA recommends cooking all whole cuts of meat (including pork) to 145deg F as measured with a food thermometer placed in the thickest part of the meat."""
