The Flat Iron steak is known by many names including, the Top Blade, Shoulder Top Blade, or just the Top Blade filet. Gaining popularity in recent years thanks to its long list of excellent qualities, the Flat Iron is not only flavorful and succulent but one of the most versatile cuts available. Almost as tender as the tenderloin, yet at a fraction of the price, the Flat Iron steak marries every meat eater’s favorite characteristics (great quality at an approachable price point) into one excellent portion. Cut from the shoulder (or the Chuck), this is the same area many other delightful portions come from. A well-marbled section, the Flat Iron boasts big flavor, and when prepared correctly, yields juicy and tender results!
Sustainably raised, our grass-fed beef is not only better for you but also better for the planet. Allowed to freely graze on the open pasture land of the New Zealand countryside and given adequate space, instead of kept in pens, these free-ranging cattle ranches significantly lessen their carbon footprint and are an aid to the environment instead of a net drain. But the benefits of eating grass-fed beef don’t stop there. Where cattle raised in feedlots are fed a steady diet of questionable, if not downright harmful things, grass-fed cattle are fed what they were meant to eat, grass! Cattle are ruminants and have four stomachs, each designed to break down tough and fibrous greens and draw nutrients from them. Allowed to eat a diet suited to them translates into meat with higher amounts of healthy fats like Omega-3s, antioxidants, and more nutrients over-all. So make the easy choice and start enjoying meat that’s not only more flavorful but also healthier.
Sourced from one of the leading purveyors of grass-fed beef in the Southern Hemisphere, our Flat Iron steaks come from Angus Pure’s Special Reserve. Based out of New Zealand, their company makes every effort to source only the best cattle available. With careful attention paid to how the cows are raised and what they are given to eat, their strict quality control renders unmatched results and a beef that is tender, juicy, and sure to captivate your palate!
