    Mangalista pork

    Had never heard of this breed until it surfaced in the bacon thread. Am going down the rabbit hole, Breed was developed in Hungary, early 1800's, by crossbreeding, resulting in pinker more marbled pork, described as the Kobe of pork. Prices are $20 to 40/lb.
    Am interested in experience with, and sources.
    There appears to be a farm/supplier near Kettle Falls, WA. (north of Spokane). Mangalista Estates in Iowa seems to be a major player.
    Am going to check a couple of local potential sources. They probably will not have product, but may have knowledge.

    I've been wanting to try both mangalitsa and iberico. Haven't been able to bring myself to order them, though...

      Had iberico when we visited Spain. Was fabulous. Hadn't heard of mangalitsa until now. Following this thread!

    Its a great pig. Used to make the best lard on the planet. My favorite though is red wattle.

      Red wattle hogs are huge!

    In the bacon thread is a reference to Roaming Bison Ranch in western Montana. They have a nice website; I plan to order some.
