This ground Iberico pork is perfect for crafting delicious burgers and sliders, or enhancing any recipe that calls for ground pork. It comes from purebred Iberico pigs raised outdoors in the Hill Country of Texas.

This delicious ground pork comes from Iberico pigs raised on Trails End Ranch by Ashly Martin, a third-generation rancher in Comfort, Texas. The pigs roam freely, feasting on acorns, grass, herbs, sweet mesquite beans, prickly pear fruit and other wild foods. This unique Texan diet gives the pork a complex, rich flavor.

Several years ago, a herd of purebred Iberico pigs was transported from Spain to America. Upon reaching the 1,500-acre ranch, the pigs flourished in the Texas hill country, a landscape similar to the ‘dehesa’ rangeland of western Spain.

All Texas Iberico® pigs spend their entire lives outdoors, each having access to over an acre of rangeland. The pork is certified Animal Welfare Approved by the AGW organization, which Consumer Reports recognizes as the only “highly meaningful” food label for farm animal welfare.

Your pork will arrive frozen and delivered on dry ice. Be sure to thaw it before cooking. The USDA advises cooking all whole cuts of meat, including pork, to an internal temperature of 145°F, measured with a food thermometer in the thickest part of the meat.
