Ribs are overrated and I do them pretty well. I only need them like twice a year. I’m more interested in shoulder and butt roasts and making carnitas, smoked or in the oven. Edit-what would a roast of this kind of pork be like? Is it a certain type of pig?
Iberico pigs are a Spanish breed. It's believed both the breed of pig and their diet makes the meat special. They feed on acorns which people believe gives a special flavor. I've had other cuts from iberico at Spanish restaurants and it was very very good

If it's legit Iberico pork, the flavor is probably going to be out of this world.
I've only ever had Iberico ham and, let me tell you, that shit was amazing!

Haven't tried the ham. I think I'll get one for Christmas this year.

Wagyu beef also has some insanely good marbling

A single leg of Iberico Ham costs about $4,500. Link.
