Secreto de barriguera · ibérico pork · two options
Secreto de barriguera (belly secreto), ibérico pork
Secreto de barriguera is a relative of the better-known secreto ibérico: marbled ibérico pork for the plancha or the grill. Barriguera comes from barriga, belly, and that is as much as the label tells us about where it sits; we will not guess the rest. It is sold in two options, ibérico or ibérico de bellota, chosen on the Spanish product page.

How to cook it
- Plancha, charcoal grill or ridged pan, properly hot.
- Salt and pepper are enough. A dry rub of herbs and spices suits it too; wipe off wet marinades, which burn.
- Cook it quickly on both sides. The fat inside the meat melts and keeps it moist, so there is no need to add any.
- Ibérico pork may be served pink.
- Rest it for a couple of minutes, then slice across the grain. Cut small, it makes a good starter to hand round.
Secreto de barriguera: questions
Is it the same as secreto ibérico?
No, it is sold as a cut of its own. The classic secreto is the thin piece hidden between the shoulder and the belly fat. If a recipe just says “secreto”, that is the one it means; it is on our ibérico pork page.
Which option is acorn-fed?
Only the one marked “Bellota Ibérico”. The option “Ibérico” is Iberian breed pork without the acorn finish.
How much is in a pack?
Our product data gives no fixed weight. Check the option on the Spanish product page, or write to us in English on WhatsApp before you order.
