Discover one of pork’s hidden gems — the Secreto, also known as the “butcher’s secret.” This prized cut is a thin, marbled muscle tucked inside the shoulder, traditionally kept aside by butchers because of its incredible flavor and tenderness.
Our Mangalitsa Secreto takes it to the next level with rich marbling and buttery texture, making it perfect for quick grilling or searing. It’s a cut you won’t find in the supermarket — rare, unique, and unforgettable.

Pair with chimichurri, garlic butter, or a smoky rub.
Conventional pork is bred for leanness, resulting in pale meat lacking flavor and moisture. One look at our Mangalitsa pork tells a different story – the meat is richly red with beautiful marbling throughout. This isn't just a visual difference. The deep color indicates higher myoglobin content and intramuscular fat, translating directly to more flavor and moisture in every bite. When you cook our pork, you'll notice it stays juicy and tender, even if you accidentally overcook it a bit.
