Braising Steak

Juicy and typically lean. Braising steak is the perfect cut for low and slow styles of cooking. Cooking this cut for longer allows the intense flavours to develop and build. Great in dishes like casseroles.

Shin Beef

When cooked slowly with love, even braised, Shin beef can be one of the most flavoursome cuts.   

As the name suggests, this cut is taken from the shin or shank of the cow. This cut from the lower leg is a muscle that puts in work, so there is connective tissue that tastes best when it is broken down through slow cooking.
