Iberico paleta in Montpellier: whole shoulder, slicing or packs
When buying paleta in Montpellier, start with how much you will use and where you will prepare it. Choose an Iberico Cebo shoulder with different presentation options, or Altanza Cebo 50% Ibérico sliced packs of 80 g net. These are not equivalent units.
A whole shoulder to carve at home
Paleta comes from the foreleg. Choosing the whole-piece variant means having a suitable stand, tools and space to carve safely. Its weight includes bone and parts that cannot become slices; it cannot directly tell you how many 80 g packs you would obtain.
A slicing service is not one pack
The whole shoulder’s product page also offers machine or hand slicing. These variants concern preparation of the piece, not the purchase of a single 80 g pack. Check the full price of your chosen variant and ask how it is presented before ordering.
Packs for a smaller purchase
The Altanza pack contains 80 g net of machine-sliced Cebo 50% Ibérico shoulder. Choose the number of units without assuming a guaranteed number of servings. Follow the label for storing and serving; an opened whole piece and a closed pack need not have the same storage instructions.
Receiving in central Montpellier
The official tourism office describes the heart of L’Écusson as mainly pedestrian. Give the address, postcode and access details, and agree who will receive the parcel; do not assume vehicle access to the door. Paco sells from Barcelona without advertising a Montpellier shop. Ask first for an essential date.
