This steak is enriched considerably from a nugget of natural fat to keep the meat succulent, while it promises a full flavoured treat as the fat caramelises and tenderises the meat when cooked.The rib eye steak is taken from the rib primal of a beef animal, with the bone removed. It’s known as a butcher’s cut, because traditionally the butcher would reserve certain tasty cuts for himself, the rib eye being one of them. As it comes from the upper rib cage, the muscles are underused with more fat, promising a tender and flavoursome steak.

Aging creates, hands down, the very best flavour and tenderness in beef. The process is carefully controlled in our specialist refrigeration unit. As the meat ages, moisture is lost and the flavour intensifies, in much the same way as reducing a sauce produces bolder richer flavour. The meat naturally shrinks considerably during the aging, but the end result is most certainly worth the cost.
Wow your guests at any event with a rib of beef on the bone, It looks great and you get much more of the flavour through the joint. The forerib has plenty of fat marbled through the flesh that adds flavour and keeps the meat tender during cooking. For easy carving the bone as been chined, the bone is cut from the rib bones but left on the joint. This allows for the bones to be easily removed for carving. After you have finished feasting, simmer the bones slowly to create rich beef stock for soups and casseroles.
