Mercado Famous

Mercado Famous brings cured meats from Spain to American tables, including jamón Ibérico, Serrano ham, chorizo, lomo and salchichón, most sold sliced and ready to eat. Its Ibérico pigs are raised on a family farm near La Alberca in Salamanca, roaming the Dehesa meadows and eating acorns in the fall. The brand was started by food lovers with Spanish and Chinese roots whose grandparents ran restaurants in Spain, and who wanted to share the Spanish habit of lingering over jamón with friends.
