Botillo: Traditionally made in the western Leonese regions. Botiellu, in Leonese, is a dish of meat-stuffed pork intestine. It is a culinary specialty of El Bierzo, a county in the Spanish province of León and of the Portuguese region of Trás-os-Montes as well. This kind of embutido is a meat product made from different pieces left over from the butchering of a pig, including the ribs, tail and bones with a little meat left on them. These are chopped, seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic, and other spices, stuffed in the cecum of the pig, and partly cured via smoking. It can also include pork tongue, shoulder blade, jaw, and backbone, but never exceeding 20% of the total volume. It is normally consumed cooked, covered with a sheet. Also has a PGI status.
