Iberian ham carving for weddings and exclusive events in the United States
Live artistic ham carving, gourmet plating and professional training experiences by Julio García · Galician Ham Carver. Available for selected weddings, private celebrations, luxury hospitality and culinary events across the United States.
In the United States, where bold flavor meets unique experiences, Iberian ham carving becomes an unforgettable moment. I am Julio García, known as Galician Ham Carver, and I bring together technique, visual presentation, character and showmanship to create a service that guests do not simply taste — they remember.
A gourmet show created for exceptional events
Wearing a Scottish kilt, a Cordoban hat and carrying a professional carving knife, I bring an unmistakable visual identity to every celebration.
Whether on a Miami rooftop, at a California vineyard, inside a Manhattan penthouse or at an intimate private residence, live Iberian ham carving adds prestige, flavor and character to the occasion.
Each service combines professional preparation, live carving, presentation and interaction with the guests, turning the ham into a true part of the entertainment.
This is not simply catering. It is a gastronomic performance built around tradition, technique, personality and attention to detail.

Every plate becomes part of the experience

Each slice is placed with intention, respecting the structure of the ham while creating an elegant presentation suitable for luxury weddings, private dinners and high-end hospitality.
The result is refined, recognizable and adapted to the atmosphere of each event.
