Pasture Raised Denver Steak 300g

PASTURE RAISED DENVER STEAK

Well-Marbled. Tender. Surprisingly Luxurious.

Denver Steak is another lesser-known cut that deserves a place beside the traditional favourites.

It comes from the chuck area, yet when correctly butchered it can be remarkably tender. Its natural marbling provides richness and juiciness, giving the steak far more refinement than many people expect from a shoulder cut.

Simple Cooking Guide

Denver Steak responds best to high heat and relatively quick cooking.

Season simply, sear well and aim for medium-rare. Rest thoroughly before slicing and always pay attention to the direction of the grain.

Ray's Notebook

A cut doesn't have to be famous to be exceptional. Denver is a good example of why understanding the animal is more useful than simply buying the same three steaks every week.

Choosing the Right Cut

Choose Denver when you want marbling, tenderness and something less familiar; choose Flat Iron when you want a slightly leaner shoulder steak with excellent beef flavour.
