Iberico de Bellota

"D.C. based Wagshal's Market has become the only place in the country where you can purchase fresh Iberico de Bellota pork, chiefly the pork loin. While the cured stuff will run you close to $100 per pound, Wagshal's will retail the loin products for between $23.99 and $29.99 per pound, depending on the specific cut."

Compared to Wagyu (which costs approx. $100 per pound), Iberio de Bellota is a great deal.

My parents get some pork from Iberico (not the cured kind) at a nearby grocery store or one particular restaurant in Azabu Juban, Tokyo, and they love it. I am looking forward to trying some at Wagshal's :)
