La Jara cebo 50% iberian shoulder ham

The field-fed shoulder ham is that shoulder ham obtained from the front legs of the Iberian pig with a breed purity of 50%, which has been fed with compound feed. Like the Iberico cebo ham, the cebo shoulder ham also feeds on cereals and legumes that it finds during its aging stage in the field.

The breed of the pig is 50% Iberian, which means that it comes from father and mother of different breeds: the Iberian and the Duroc (of American origin), a white pig with reddish skin similar to the Retinto pig breed. Breeds are mixed to increase productivity and help better meet market demand. Also the Duroc pig is more resistant to diseases.

Pig farming is semi-extensive: the animals spend part of their lives on farms and another part feeding freely in the fields. The exercise they do and the naturalness of their diet at this stage means that the field-fed ham obtained is of high quality and therefore its price is a little higher than that of the ham.
