    So glad I live in the Netherlands. Iberico is basically a regional product. It's only a thousand km away. That makes the prices of Iberico way more affordable.

    the Berkshire available by me looks like your iberico pork. You must've gotten a lower end version. The marbling on the Berkshire looks like wagyu not like the Berkshire you had there. its a shame you didn't get a good one for the test.

      Hi Ulas. I haven’t don’t mNga chops but they are on my list. For shoulder and tenderloin I prefer Iberico but mangalista could give it a run for it’s money on chops.

    I recently scored some Iberico pork from Campo Grande. They have several Iberico cuts including some lesser known cuts like the abanico (rib cap), coppa (aka mogote, from the upper part of the collar, basically the pork equivalent of chuck eye), 3 different secretos (the classic one from the shoulder, jowl secreto which can be used like guanciale, and belly secreto), even Iberico flank and skirt steaks to name a few. There’s a $150 minimum for building a custom 📦, but their curated boxes are exempt from their $150 minimum.

    Berkshire is so much better than regular pork that I don't think it's worth that much more for iberico for a little better.
    Also, you should have trimmed the double chop down to the same thickness to do a comparison. Even normal cheap pork is way better when being cooked in a thicker piece.

    This is not an equal comparison. Iberico pigs are much older at butcher. Age equals flavor. You would need someone to specially raise a Berkshire to 16+ months.

    • @BehindTheFoodTV
      @BehindTheFoodTV  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Justin. Given that these are what people can buy, I think the comparison is valid. I.e. - is the Iberico you can buy worth the price difference vs the Berkshire you can buy. But it's ok if you disagree as long as you watch lots of my videos!!! :-)
