This is a 2-inch bone-in rib chop cut from purebred Mangalitsa hogs raised on pasture in Corsicana, Texas. One chop. Thick enough to be the centerpiece of any meal.
The rib chop is the most naturally marbled cut on the animal — pulled from the rack, where intramuscular fat runs deepest and the fat cap stays intact. On a Mangalitsa, that marbling isn’t decoration. It’s what separates pork that cooks dry from pork that bastes itself.
Before pork became the other white meat, it looked like this. Red. Marbled. Rich. This is that pork.

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.
