Description:
When your customers expect the very best, deliver a steak that's a cut above the rest with this Rastelli's 6 oz. Black Angus flat iron steak! Black Angus beef is prized for its great flavor and generous, even fat marbling; this meat comes from Black Angus cattle that are hand-raised with care to ensure a tender texture and exquisite taste. This meat comes from Black Angus cattle that are in the top 2/3rds of the breed program for top quality meat! Named for its resemblance to an old-fashioned clothing iron, this flat iron steak is cut from the top blade of the shoulder. It was once considered a "throwaway" cut because of the gristly fascia membrane that runs through the center of the shoulder; however, innovative modern butchering techniques and Rastelli's meticulous standards allow this chewy portion to be trimmed away, leaving a first-class cut of meat worthy of any fine-dining establishment! This flat iron steak is generously marbled with fat, providing rich, beefy flavor in every succulent bite. Better yet, it's considered one of the most tender cuts available, second only to the filet mignon. When cooked to medium-rare perfection and served alongside tender, fresh vegetables or garlicky mashed potatoes, this first-class, boneless steak makes a truly show-stopping addition to your menu!<br><Br> This Black Angus flat iron steak is expertly wet aged for 21-28 days to ensure rich flavor and a tender texture that make it easy to prepare. With its dense connective tissue removed, this tender flat iron steak is perfect for fast cooking methods like grilling, searing, roasting, or broiling. For optimal results, try dry-brining the steak in kosher salt overnight in your refrigerator. When it comes time to cook, rinse off the salt, pat dry with a paper towel, and sprinkle coarsely ground black pepper on each side. Because Black Angus steak does not need many other ingredients or sauces to deliver big flavor, this simple seasoning is perfect for enhancing the natural flavors of the beef while ensuring a crisp, brown crust and a tender, juicy interior. Ensure that you allow the steak to rest after cooking, then slice it against the grain for maximum tenderness!<br><br>With more than 40 years of experience butchering premium meats, Rastelli's has earned a reputation as a purveyor of meticulously cut, hand-trimmed meats that stand out from the competition.
