How rude are some of these comments? Some of you need to get off your high horses and visit Lidl. My partner and I some time ago decided that we needed to cut our shopping budgets so we changed our regular supermarket from Asda to Lidl. Surprised is not the word the food is fresh and tasty and everything we buy is fresh (We don't do ready meals) the meat is fantastic and the fruit and veg is good value. On the odd occasion we shop at one of the big 4 they are full of chavs, people still in their pyjamas and fishwives shouting at their children. Oh and most of the Lidl stores I've frequented don't have the need for a permanent security guard...the people that shop there have more class! The ham is fab saw one today it's a bit early for us to buy Christmas food but my fiancé was definitely interested in buying one.

nice idea, but I doubt these will sell in Lidl at that price point, give it a week and they will be on special clearance offer :smiley:

we've actually sold half of our stock already and they've only been on sale from today. Apparently this is cheap even compared to the continent. they are not re-ordetable so once they've sold out that's it until next year!

How is this best eaten and what meat is it exactly?

A similar type of meat is being offered through Amazon local less weight of the ham with a knife, sharpener and carving block for £85 and that is being advertised as as 49% saving so this is pretty good in comparison even when taking out the cost of the extras.

@jazzy1 it's a cured leg of pork, and you slice it thinly and have it as a starter, on its own or with bread.

The only way Lidl will shift these is up the jumper of the regular shop lifters - I mean customers!

Very good price. We buy from a local guy in the south of Spain and he charges the amazing price of £29/kilo, which people are always astounded at the value. Gives you some idea...

Then you are being ripped off for the 'Giri' that you are I'm afraid. Unless it's Pata Negra which I doubt, you shouldn't be paying even half of that - it's about that price retail in the UK pre packed. E7.50 / kg in Portugal and not much more in Spain. Whole legs (not shoulder) from Teruel (el mejor!) are about 40 - 50 Euros. Remember the Spanish economy is the walking dead....

That sounds very expensive, especially for Serrano ham.

Probably the Ham you try to buy on Spain was a better one. This is from a white pork and the one from Spain was not "Serrano Ham" probably it was "Iberian Ham" and this is a huge difference, so on the price.
FYI "Reserva" means nothing. The hams are "Iberico bellota", "Iberico recebo", "Iberico cebo" and "Serrano", from better to lower quality.
