Baby Back Ribs by Texas Iberico® (16-32 oz)

Texas Iberico® Baby Back Ribs provide a richly marbled, flavorful option for any barbecue or slow-roasted meal. The pigs' natural diet contributes to their remarkable taste and tenderness, allowing the ribs to cook to juicy, fall-off-the-bone perfection. Whether smoked, grilled or roasted, these ribs are sure to impress.

100% Iberico pigs roam freely in the Texas Hill Country, feasting on native forages like mesquite beans, acorns and prickly pear. Ranch raised for over 18 months—three times longer than commercial pigs—these pigs produce pork with incredible marbling and a depth of flavor that’s simply unmatched. The result is a rich, tender and truly extraordinary culinary experience that stands apart. 

All the Texas Iberico® pigs live outside their entire lives on one ranch, wandering the pasture together with over an acre of rangeland per animal. Texas Iberico® pork is certified Prop 12 compliant, which means the animals are raised with care, meeting or exceeding the animal welfare standards set by California Proposition 12.
