Presa Ibérica is another delicious and prized cut of Iberian pork! The Presa is taken from the shoulder of the black iberian pig, specifically the part between the neck and the top of the shoulder blade. This cut is much thicker than Pluma and Secreto, but it offers a perfect balance between tenderness and a meaty, substantial mouthful.
How do I cook my Presa Iberica?
Presa is incredibly versatile—it can be cooked whole like a steak or sliced after grilling. The ideal preparation is to cook it to medium-rare to medium, allowing the marbling to render and enhance the natural flavours. It’s also excellent for sous vide cooking to ensure even doneness. Pair it with roasted vegetables, chimichurri, or a rich red wine sauce for an elevated dish.
Note on shipping!
Each joint of Iberico Pluma Pork will be delivered on ice pads in temperature-controlled boxes (which keep the temperature low for up to 48 hours). It is best to plan ahead and cook the joint on the day it arrives, however, if you’d prefer to save it for a special occasion, it is best to store in the freezer.
With all orders – we suggest you order before Thursday 1pm. Orders after this point will likely be dispatched on Monday for a delivery on Tuesday. If you live in the Scottish Highlands or UK Islands next-day deliveries are not available, and we may not be able to guarantee delivery within the timeframe above. Please be aware that you will need to purchase the Iberio Pork at entirely your own risk. We’re sorry if that is you!!
Can I freeze Presa Ibérica?
Yes, Presa Ibérica freezes well. For best results, freeze it in airtight packaging and thaw it slowly in the refrigerator before cooking.
Is Presa Ibérica sustainable?

Why is Presa Ibérica more expensive than regular pork?
