We use heritage breed cattle such as Galloways and Short Horns.

The process of braising involves searing the meat in a hot pan to develop flavour, then simmering it slowly in a flavourful liquid (such as broth, wine, or tomatoes) at a low temperature for an extended period of time. This slow cooking method breaks down the tough connective tissue in the meat, resulting in tender, succulent beef with rich, flavourful sauce.

Braising steak is often well-marbled, which adds moisture and flavour to the dish as it cooks. It's also relatively inexpensive compared to more premium cuts of beef, making it a popular choice for budget-friendly meals.

Approximately 500g.

    As usual I have never been disappointed cook's great in my slow cooker full of flavour would definitely recommend.

Characteristics: Tough and needs long, slow cooking but good marbling of fat through the meat, adding flavour

Best Cooking Methods: Pan fry and oven

Preheat: Preheat the oven to 170°C

Seasoning: Trim off any fat from the beef and season on both sides with salt and pepper.

Pan fry: Fry the steaks over a medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes per side, or until nicely browned, then transfer to a casserole dish

Oven: Add your choice of vegetables and stock to the casserole dish, bring to the boil, then cover the casserole and transfer to the oven. Cook for 1¼ – 1½ hours, or until the beef is very tender

 

General Tips:

Resting: Always let steaks rest after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute.

Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to check doneness:

Rare: 49-52°C

Medium-Rare: 54-57°C

Medium: 60-63°C

Medium-Well: 65-68°C

Well-Done: 70°C and above

Searing: For a great crust, ensure the meat is dry and the cooking surface is very hot.

Enjoy your perfectly cooked steak!
