Meat Cuts in Spain
Tuesday, December 3, 2019 @ 1:26 PM

Recently I posted on beef cuts in Spain, as getting by at the meat counter can be a bit of an ordeal in a foreign country when trying to work out which cut you are actually buying! But obviously beef isn't the only meat out there and I was asked to post more diagrams of other meats. So I have put together in one post, the cuts from the three main types of meat: Pork, Lamb and Beef.

Hope this will be useful the next time you pass by your butcher's!

PORK

LAMB

BEEF

Very useful, thank you. Does any one know which part of a pig secreto de cerdo comes from .

Secreto comes from just behind the shoulder of the pig - between 5 and 7 on the diagram.

Thank you for info re Secreto Ian. Thank you too for the puchero recipe - I’ve been looking for a recipe for years.

I appreciate the information!
Can I ask for the source for the charts? I am looking for a book on Spanish Butchery and having a difficult time finding something that goes beyond Charcuterie
