Cooking Instructions

Iberico Mogote - Slow Roast or Braise

1kg short collar neck. Serves 4. Defrost 24 hours. 3 to 3½ hours in the oven.

1. Defrost
Move the pack from freezer to fridge. Leave it in its packaging, on a plate. Allow 24 hours. Cook within 3 days of defrosting. Do not refreeze.

2. Salt it ahead
Pat dry and salt generously all over. A few hours uncovered in the fridge is enough for a piece this size.

3. Brown it first
Sear the whole piece hard on every side in a casserole. The mogote is the short end of the collar, marbled through, and it renders its own fat as it colours.

4. Low and slow
Oven at 140°C for 3 to 3½ hours. To roast, set it on a rack over a tray. To braise, add stock and sherry to come a third of the way up and cover the pot.

5. Test by feel, not by temperature
It is ready when a fork twists in the meat with no resistance. Pulled early, a collar cut is tough rather than underdone.

6. Rest
20 minutes on a board before carving or pulling.

7. Serve
Thick slices across the grain, or pulled apart with two forks. Good with roasted peppers, or in buns with something sharp and pickled.

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.

Surprisingly good value

I've had the 2kg collar, but this time had to settle for a smaller one.... but not to worry, there was still (with some pig cheeks) enough to feed 5 in a cook up. Although it's a fatty-ish piece, there's loads of meat and (sacrilege for some) I did this sous vide and it effectively confit-ed . Super tender, super tasty. Can take a healthy amount of seasoning.
Unfortunately no photos of the finished product as it got inhaled before I'd got around it...

Thank you for reviewing our Iberico Pork Boneless Short Collar. We’re glad you found it a great value and enough for five. While it can be fatty, we’re happy the meat was tender, flavourful, and turned out well sous vide. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to serving you again!
