The marbling melted almost instantly, the edges turned golden and crisp and the first bite was incredibly tender. This is how pork is supposed to taste!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe secret to this exceptional pork is the rich acorn diet and outdoor pasture lifestyle of the Ibérico pigs. Only found in Spain, these special pigs spend their lives wandering the \u003ci\u003edehesa \u003c\/i\u003ewoodlands of southwest Spain, grazing on grasses, wild herb, and sweet bellotas (acorns). The acorn-rich diet and plentiful exercise produce a pork marbled with flavor. Each bite is deliciously rich, yet surprisingly light. It tastes nutty, savory and a little wild.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSalt and pepper these Ibérico de Bellota \u003ci\u003epluma\u003c\/i\u003e loin steaks and grill them over high heat or sear them in a cast iron skillet.
