Bone- In Jamón Ibérico Shoulder, Stand, and Carving Kit - Bellota 100% Ibérico Pata Negra Acorn-Fed UN1CO Ham

Wow your holiday guests with this show-stopping addition to your holiday dining experience! This succulent Bellota 100% Ibérico Pata Negra Ham arrives at your doorstep with a carrying bag, jamonero (ham-holder) and carving knife to provide everything you need to incorporate a taste of Spain into your holiday spread. 

One of Chef Katie Button’s true loves, which she affectionately refers to as the "Rolls Royce of hams”, our artisan Spanish Jamón Ibérico is traditionally raised, acorn-fed, and aged in Extremadura (referred to as “Paradise of the Pastures”) by Maestro Jamoneros (master ham producers) from the region who have been raising Jamón Ibérico (cured Ibérico Ham) for over 130 years. The ham shoulder is slowly cured in natural drying sheds following the Montanera, a 2-3 month acorn feeding period, in order to concentrate the ham’s naturally succulent flavor. Salt and patience are the Maestro Jamoneros’’ only secrets of preservation to produce the creamy texture and balanced aroma of our Bone-In Pata Negra Bellota: the highest-quality ham available and a true Spanish delight.

Enjoy a slice on its own, or serve the Cúrate way with our Picos Artesanos Castilla or Bonilla a la Vista Patatas Fritas, Marcona Almonds, Aintzia Piparra Basque Peppers and Losada Manzanilla Olives. The ham is also delicious served with Pan Con Tomate: an easy but impressive Spanish tapa you can make at home! ,
