Chorizo Delivered to Your Door

Chorizo is a bold, spicy sausage made from premium, farm-fresh pork and seasoned with a variety of spices, including paprika, chili powder, and garlic. This flavorful, rich sausage is a staple in many cuisines, especially Mexican and Spanish, and brings a hearty, smoky kick to any dish. Whether you’re making tacos, breakfast burritos, paella, or simply adding it to your favorite stew, chorizo is perfect for adding depth and spice.

Our chorizo is made using high-quality pork and carefully balanced spices to bring out its bold flavors. It’s ready to be cooked, crumbled, or sliced for your favorite dishes, making it a versatile ingredient that adds a punch of flavor to any meal.

Fun Facts:

  • Chorizo can be enjoyed fresh or cured, with the fresh variety being more popular for cooking, and the cured version commonly eaten on its own.

  • The smoky flavor of chorizo comes from paprika, often used in Spanish varieties, while Mexican chorizo tends to be spicier with added chili peppers.

  • Chorizo is a popular addition to breakfast burritos, quesadillas, and grilled sandwiches, or it can be enjoyed on its own with eggs and tortillas.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • Protein: Chorizo is a great source of protein, supporting muscle health and overall energy.

  • B Vitamins: Rich in B12 and B6, which help your body convert food into energy and maintain a healthy nervous system.

  • Iron: Packed with iron, which is essential for healthy blood circulation and red blood cell production.

Cooking Tips:

  • Crumbled or sliced: Chorizo can be cooked whole or crumbled into dishes. Crumble it into scrambled eggs or sauces for a spicy boost.

  • Cook thoroughly: Ensure chorizo is cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) to ensure it’s safe to eat and packed with flavor.

  • Pair with acidic sides: The spice and richness of chorizo pairs well with lime, sour cream, or a fresh salsa to balance its bold flavors.

Cooking Temperatures:

  • Chorizo should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) for optimal flavor and safety.

Le saucisson sec is my favorite thing to eat paired with cornichon with a glass of wine for aperitif. Thank you for the great product!

First time ordering. We brined the two turkey breasts and served them up for Thanksgiving dinner. They were awesome and everyone loved them. Tender and great size for our family of eaters! Can’t wait to try th chicken legs!

Anna, thank you so much for my order! To think I ordered my items last night and they got here today is incredible. I LOVE your products and all your hard work is so appreciated!
K
The pork is the best! Since moving to Iowa I don’t think I have ever had better meat in my life. Love to support over the moon!

Anna and Shae raise their animals with so much care and you can taste the difference in the meat. We made braised turkey legs with cranberry, star anise and sweet potatoes and it was delicious!

For the past 3 years, we have purchased our meat almost exclusively from Over the Moon Farm and Flowers. From our first 'whole hog' 3 years ago to the recent delivery of pork, chicken, duck, turkey, and lamb, the flavor and consistent quality of the cuts is second to none. The variety offered has expanded our menu and challenged us to try new cuts and new recipes - New Year's Eve roast duck will certainly be a new tradition. They make it easy to order on their website and then deliver right to our door! Give them a try - you will not be sorry. #knowyourfarmer!

We ordered a pasture raised turkey for Thanksgiving in 2021. This was the highest quality meet we have ever cooked. The turkey turned out juice and had such nice flavor. Getting the updates on the turkey's growth was also such a nice, human feeling touch. We will not get our turkey anywhere else. They also have a meat delivery program, it is a MUST try.
J
Superb meats, absolutely some of the best chicken, beef and pork in Iowa. Lean, deeply flavorful, delivered to your door by the nicest pair of local ranchers. I can’t recommend Anna and Shae and their meats highly enough.
E
Their pork is out of this world! Absolutely A+. Hard to stop eating:). Fully recommend.
