Information about Paleta MAEXTRE Selection. Ibéricos de Extremadura Maextre
The Maextre paleta Great Selection is a unique product.
They are shoulders that come from 100% Iberian females "PRIMALAS". They are 100% Iberian mothers who carry out their reproductive work on a single occasion. Once they have given birth and weaned, they are castrated to go out to graze freely in the fields with their "neutered fattened male brothers". After the montanera, they will be slaughtered. Therefore, they are shoulders from larger animals, hence the piece has a minimum weight of 5.5kgs.
The use of the 100% ibérica mother for a single gestation is part of the traditional pig management system ibérico. It is an ancestral practice widely used in the past that has fallen into disuse due to the search for the highest yield from livestock activity.
These "primalas" when weaned and castrated are removed from the ibérico norm. For this reason, these shoulders cannot be called Iberian and go on to swell what in the pork sector is ibérico known as out-of-the-norm ham.
At Ibéricos Maextre, these pieces are treated and cured following the same quality standards as for the rest of the pieces. Achieving paddles with great intramuscular fat infiltration and with a minimum cure of 2 years.
The paleta Gran Selección develops a mix of flavours in which nuts and grass stand out.

After being castrated, they graze freely and are slaughtered, resulting in larger pieces (minimum 5.5kg).
Although they are not "Iberian" pieces and are classified as out of the norm, at Maextre they are cured with the same quality standards, achieving a paleta with great fat infiltration, a minimum curing of 2 years and flavours reminiscent of nuts and grass.
