A little about the Berkshire Pig breed:
"While the Berkshire is labeled as a lard pig, there is much more going for this kind of pork than just the lard. The meat is perfectly marbled, providing for an unusual dining experience. Professional chefs as well as individual consumers have come to love the intense flavor that Berkshire meat provides. In Japan, Berkshire pork is seen as a delicacy. It is called “Kurobuta” in Japan.
The meat of a Berkshire pig is loaded with flavor. While commercially raised pork can be dry, tasteless, and unappealing, Berkshire pork is totally different. The meat is pink and juicy. It has tons of flavor. Some lard pigs deposit the fat in a rim around the muscle tissue. Berkshires deposit the fat throughout the muscle, giving delicate marbling to each piece of meat."
