So it's the unbeatable ham is it?
>>21885787I've tried top notch ham, it's good, but idk, give me sobrasada instead which is cheaper and extremely good, obviously, that's just me and my taste, to each their own
simple as
>>21885820Step aside peasant, bowl cancer coming through.
>>21885787It's a scam. It used to be really good and then El Bulli happened. For years on end it supposedly was the best restaurant in the world (around 2000). The guys who ran it (Ferran and Albert Adria) never kept any secrets, so Spanish ham became famous and everybody wanted it.The result was that Spanish pig farmers cross-bread the real deal with regular pigs to meet demand and kept calling it [insert fad here]. In the end you pay lots of money for shit quality. San Daniele is way better.
>>21885787Best one I've ever ate was in Bulgaria. It was basically the same thing, but I guess different regional molds and shit made the taste so much better, verry "nutty" and tasty "Elenski But" according to wikipedia, I havent seen it exported anywhere thohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elenski_but
>>21885787Prosciutto is overratedThere's so many better alternatives for cured meats imoThe fact they need to put it on some fancy thing to sell it to you is all you need know

>>21886120the pic is jamon serrano, it's from spain
>>21885820I always found that "x% fat/sugar/whatever bogeyman free" so stupid.It simply has 3% fat ffs.
>>21886120Retard
What do they do with hoof part? Do they make soup or something?
>>21886214I agree and I have the same thought. It's like calling butter 20% fat free.
>>21886120Holy retard
>>21886122>Adults are talking here
>>21885787just eat the salt fat and cancer bro. Definitely eat this and not some nice fresh meat in 2026, nooo

89c a pound spiral sliced ham butt for me around Easter and Christmas and freeze. Beat that.
the murrican version actually kicks the shit out of the spanish versionhttps://meatsofvirginia.com/edwards-ham/ols/products/edwards-surryano-boneless-ham-8-10-poundsnot even a meat shill, I've had a ton of iberico and 99% of it is overrated as fuck.
