The Iberian Lizard is a long, narrow cut, hence its name, found between the loin and the ribs of the Iberian pig. It is a lesser-known cut than others, but highly valued by experts for its perfect balance of lean meat and infiltrated fat. This combination gives it exceptional juiciness and flavor.
Visually, it presents a vein of fat along its elongated shape, which melts during cooking, keeping the meat tender and moist. Its texture is firm yet very soft, and melts in the mouth. The flavor of the Iberian Lizard is powerful and deep, with an aftertaste of acorns and nuts characteristic of high-quality Iberian pigs.
It’s an ideal cut for the griddle or grill, as its thinness allows for quick and even cooking, sealing in its juices and enhancing its aromas. It’s a perfect choice for those looking for a tasty, tender cut with a gourmet touch.
