Joselito Gran Reserva.

A type of cured pork I assume?

Why are there not more (I can't think of any, but that doesn't mean much) types of cured beef (where it is cured as a solid piece of meat and then sliced thin)?

Yup you're spot on. It's a spanish jamón ibérico de bellota (cured iberian ham from acorn-fed pigs). Joselito Gran Reserva is the "good stuff".

re: cured beef - I love good carne salata but yes, it doesn't receive as much "foodie" attention as it's porcine relatives.

Acorn fed pigs? What the heck could they think of next?

Dried Beef (think SOTS) is cured as a roast and then thinly sliced. Back where I grew up in Iowa, there was a small town locker that made weekly batches of Dried Beef out of whole Round roasts. Sale day was Wednesday, and if you weren't here by 10a.m., it was gone. Good stuff, for sandwiches as well as SOTS

Thanks. I will buy you a pizza next time I am in T town, and you must already know what kind it will be... unless they discontinue it before I get there.
