This Palacios hot chorizo is a delicious cured sausage with a deep smoky flavor. This all natural chorizo is seasoned with picante smoked paprika from the La Vera valley in Western Spain. It is made from a generations-old recipe in La Rioja. It is not flaming hot in the sense of Mexican cuisine, but rather, mildly spicy.
Its flavor is a piquant blend of pork, garlic, salt and the distinctive smoked paprika, which makes Spanish chorizo unlike sausages from any other country. No nitrates or nitrites are used in their production. This chorizo is fully dry-cured and ready to eat with your favorite cheese and wine, or just a chunk of crusty bread. About 1 inch thick.
In 1998, Palacios became the first chorizo imported to the U.S. and continues to be the most popular Spanish sausage available from Spain.
Animal welfare is important to our family-owned company. Palacios chorizo is made from humanely raised pork, certified by Bienestar Animal Welfare Spain.
