Description

Iberico Pork Presa is an oval-shaped cut, found between the shoulder and loin of Spanish Pata Negra pigs. A very tender and well-marbled meat, it can be prepared quickly and simply by roasting and serving sliced. Presa, as with most cuts from the Iberian pigs, can be served slightly pink.

We strive for precision with every hand-cut order. Please note that natural variations occur, and we maintain a weight tolerance of ±8%, which is reflected in our pricing. Should a selection fall outside this range, we will contact you directly to ensure your order meets our standards and your expectations.

Ingredients

Preparing Iberico Pork Presa from frozen is easier than you might think! First off, Presa is a beautiful cut from the shoulder or neck of the Iberian pig, prized for its marbling, tenderness, and deep flavour.

Step-by-Step: Defrost and Cook Your Presa

1. Defrosting:
- Start by taking the frozen 1.5 kg Iberico pork presa out of the freezer.
- Place it in the refridgerator for 24 hours to defrost slowly (this preserves the texture and flavour).

2. Pat Dry:
- Once thawed, pat the meat dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. This will help achieve a better sear when cooking.

3. Seasoning:
- Generously season the presa with salt, pepper, and optionally, a touch of smoked paprika or garlic powder for an extra layer of flavour.

4. Heat Options:
- Stovetop/Grill Pan:
Heat a heavy skillet or grill pan to medium-high heat. Add a bit of olive oil and sear the presa for 4-5 minutes on each side to develop a nice crust.
- Grill:
Preheat your grill to medium-high. Sear the presa directly over the heat for 4-5 minutes per side, then move it to indirect heat to cook through.
- Oven Finish:
For an even cook, especially if the presa is thicker, after searing on the stovetop or grill, transfer it to an oven preheated to 180°C for another 10-15 minutes until it reaches an internal temperature of 60°C for medium-rare.

5. Resting:
Let the meat rest for 5-10 minutes after cooking. This helps the juices redistribute, making your pork juicy and tender.

ACORN-FED

FROZEN

The Land of the Black Hoof

In the sun-baked plains and ancient oak forests of Spain's dehesa, the Pata Negra pig lives as it has for centuries, roaming freely, foraging on acorns, and taking its time. That unhurried life is exactly what makes Iberico pork extraordinary. The acorn diet infiltrates the fat itself, creating an intense, nutty depth of flavour that no other pork in the world can replicate.

What a lovely price of meat!

Tender and juicy! Cut the meat in a few pieces and made 3 ways- Thai style, char Siu and just salt! They were good. I think the thickness about 2 to 3 cm is the best for the way I cook.

High heat on both side for about 3/4 mins and oven 180 for 10 mins!

Thank you JT for your review. Thank you also for sharing your pictures, they all look truly delicious! We look forward to serving you again soon.

Fantastic, flavour amazing, a real step up from

Fantastic, flavour amazing, a real step up from normal pork

Thank you for your wonderful review, James! We couldn't agree more. That is why we call it the Wagyu of pork. Looking forward to serving you again soon.

Thank you Sean for your kind words and great review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the Iberico Pork Presa and it's unique flavour. Looking forward to serving you again soon.

Well packed, timely arrival, excellent meat.

Lots of people selling out there meat. Very impressed with the choice obviously aimed at foodies. Bought the 1.5kg iberico pork option and split it into four so options for two people or four people. Very tasty and will buy again. I’ve had wagyu in Kyoto and it wasn’t this expensive so will pass but will eat in Japan when we go for three weeks this year.

Thank you Nick for your 5-star review. Very happy you've enjoyed our carefully curated product offer especially our delicious Iberico pork presa. When it comes to Japanese wagyu, even as the largest importer of Japanese wagyu in the UK, this uniquely buttery meat is indeed more expensive than in Japan for obvious reasons. We look forward to serving you again soon and hope you'll share some of your Japanese culinary experiences with us.

It was amazing thanks

Thank you Gemma for your 5-star review. Very happy to know you enjoyed the flavourful Iberico Pork Presa and look forward to serving you again soon.

Delicious cut of meat

Delicious cut of meat, which we grilled and sliced for a NYE meal. Succulant and tender. Great produce and will 100% be buying more from Meat me at Home.

Thank you Lucy for your 5-star review. We are very happy you enjoyed the flavour of our Iberico pork presa and we look forward to serving you again soon.

Absolutely melt in the mouth delicious

This is the second time we've bought a presa joint from mmah and as with all their products this has never failed to life up to the promise. Unbelievably easy to cook - sear all over and then 1.5kg really does cook in 15 - 20 more mins in the oven before resting. Tender, juicy, flavoursome, what a way to start 2026, with 6 friends and family devouring this joint. You will need the full 1.5kg option for 6 people!

Thank you Janet for your 5-star review. Your description looks spot-on and delicious. We lookforward to serving you again soon.

Superb Marbling, World Class Meat

I cut mine across the grain into thick steaks for the barbecue. The meat is dark, unlike regular pork and it has intense marbling throughout, similar to Wagyu beef.
I cooked it to medium-rare, it is amazingly tender and the most delicious pork you can buy. The marbling bastes the meat as it cooks, and gives a golden crust on the outside, and succulence within. The flavour is truly satisfying and I would recommend anyone to try this, it's well worth it. I buy Iberico pork regularly from MMAH and the quality is always fantastic.

Thank you Daren for your amazing review that is truly mouth watering. Iberico pork is indeed the wagyu of pork. Thank you for your loyalty. We look forward to serving you again soon.
