The Quick Facts...
-
One of a kind blend of Wagyu beef and Iberico Pork
-
Nine burger patties of 6 oz/each in a box
Indulge in the succulent juiciness of Australian Wagyu, renowned for its unmatched marbling and melt-in-your-mouth texture, perfectly complemented by the distinctive sweetness and depth of flavor from premium Iberico pork.
Find out more about this Limited Release on our blog.
Spanish Iberico pork comes from the Black Iberian Pig, which is native to the Iberian Peninsula. These pigs roam free in oak forests and consume a diet predominantly of acorns. This unique diet leads to richly marbled meat, giving Iberico pork its exceptional flavor and tenderness, often likened to Wagyu beef in its quality.
Iberico pork is prized for its taste but also for its health benefits. It is rich in monounsaturated fats, which are known for their positive impact on cholesterol levels.
In order to reduce the amount of plastic waste and to make it easy to freeze, our handmade burgers are now layer packed and prepared by the box instead of individually vacuum packed. Simply take out what you’re planning to grill that day and toss the rest in the freezer. Once frozen, the convenient dividers make it easy to remove a layer to thaw for your next gathering.
Goes Great With…
Our Australian wagyu and Spanish Iberico pork blend is a standout centerpiece for any get-together, but every star needs a supporting cast to truly shine. To round out your meal, here are some perfect pairings that complement the rich flavours of our burgers:
-
Sides to Savor: Start with your favourite crisps for a crunchy contrast, or whip up a homemade potato salad — the creamy, cool flavours balances the hearty richness of the burgers. For a fresh option, consider tossing a green salad with a light vinaigrette to cut through the decadent fat of the Wagyu beef and Iberico pork.
-
Meaty Companions: Elevate your barbecue spread by including some of our other premium offerings:
-
All-Beef Butcher Shoppe Frank: These are no ordinary hot dogs. Each one is crafted from 100% beef to complement the taste of your burgers.
-
Hand-Twisted Bratwurst Sausage: Infuse some German flair into your meal with these bratwurst sausages. Their savory spices and tender texture make them a hearty sidekick to your burgers.
-
Smoked Farmer’s Sausages: Smoky and satisfying, these farmer sausages add a depth of flavour that pairs wonderfully with the subtle sweetness of Iberico pork in your burgers.
-
European Sliced Bacon: Enhance your burgers with our European Style Side Bacon, double-smoked and dry-cured to perfection. This bacon elevates any dish, making it a great match for the rich layers of the burgers, providing a crispy, savory counterpoint.
-
Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts: For a leaner alternative side to your burgers, try our boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Sourced from local Ontario farms and perfect for grilling, they can be marinated in your favorite seasonings to create a light yet flavorful complement to the rich taste of our burgers.
-
-
Beverages to Boost: And if you don’t mind us saying so — beer. The bubbly, crispness of a lager cuts through the fats of the burgers and sausages, cleansing your palate to enhance the flavours.
Our Preferred Preparation...
Preparing our Wagyu beef and Iberico pork burgers is simple. For the ultimate grilling experience, we recommend the following steps to ensure each bite is as delicious as the last:
-
Preheat Your Grill or Skillet: Start by heating your grill or skillet to medium-high heat. This ensures a nice sear that locks in all the delicious juices.
-
Season Generously: Before grilling, season your burgers to enhance their natural flavours. We suggest using one of our specially curated sea salts from Newfoundland, available in several enticing varieties:
-
-
Plain Newfoundland Sea Salt: Sprinkle a bit of this pure sea salt for a clean, crisp accent that enhances the natural flavours of the Wagyu and Iberico pork without overpowering them.
-
Newfoundland Sea Salt - Alder Smoked: For a touch of smokiness, opt for our Alder Smoked sea salt, which adds a subtle, woodsy aroma perfect for complementing the rich flavours of the meat.
-
Newfoundland Sea Salt - Smoked: If you prefer a deeper smoky flavour, our Smoked sea salt imparts a robust taste that pairs beautifully with the succulent fat marbling of the Wagyu beef.
-
The Butcher Shoppe's Signature Steak Spice: Alternatively, for a bolder profile, our Signature Steak Spice combines a variety of spices that highlight and elevate the distinctiveness of both Wagyu and Iberico pork.
-
-
Grill to Perfection: Place the seasoned burgers on the grill or skillet. For best results, cook for about 4 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
-
Rest Before Serving: Allow the burgers to rest for a few minutes off the heat. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the patty, ensuring every bite is moist and flavourful.
How It Ships...
Each box of our Wagyu beef and Iberico pork burgers is prepared with precision and care in our specialized Toronto butcher shop. Immediately after blending the finest Australian Wagyu with premium Spanish Iberico Pork, we form and smash the patties by hand to ensure the perfect texture and shape. They are then layer-packed to preserve the integrity and juiciness of the meats.
