Porc noir de Bigorre

Porc noir de Bigorre is pork meat coming from Gascon Noir de Bigorre pigs, the oldest breed of pigs known in France. Their meat is marbled with intramuscular fat and surrounded by an outer layer of white fat. Once cooked, the fat surrounding the topside melts, resulting in a slightly fibrous, yet very tender, juicy, and soft meat with an intense flavor.
