The right cut makes all the difference but then so too does the right butchery skills. So, it’s always good to chat to the butcher at your local meat counter. In the meantime, here are some of the classic and most delicious steak cuts…
Irish Rib eye Steak

RIBEye

A classic cut with a wonderful rich flavour thanks to the marbling of fat. Serve it medium rare to allow the fat to render down.

Irish Sirloin Steak

Sirloin

Full of flavour, the sirloin is versatile for all sorts of dishes from stir fry to kebabs or just served as a steak.

Irish Rump

Rump

Lean, not quite as tender as fillet but often viewed as more flavoursome. Grill and serve it pink.

Grass-fed Irish Fillet

Fillet

The leanest and most tender of all steak cuts. A prime fillet melts in the mouth but remember to cook it super-hot and serve it rare or medium rare.

Whiskey marinated Irish sirloin with ‘falling water’ herb salad and roasted rice powder

‘Nahm tok’ literally translates to ‘falling water’ or ‘waterfall’ and receives its namesake from juices and fat falling onto the hot coals as the sirloin steak grills. This creates smoke and imparts a wonderful flavour which marries wonderfully with a prized cut like grass-fed Irish sirloin.

Thai red curry of Irish rump with charcoal grilled celeriac and Thai basil

The flavours of the Irish rump steak stand up to the richness of this coconut cream red curry and pair wonderfully with the earthy celeriac that is grilled over coals and basted with salted coconut cream, giving a unique British flavour to a widely recognizable Thai curry.

‘Laab’ spiced irish fillet with pounded chilli and herb dressing

The ‘laab’ is a wonderful dish that involves finely chopped meat being mixed with spices and herbs. In this recipe John has taken those flavours and adapted them into a Thai style Irish fillet beef carpaccio and then combined it with a perfectly balanced punchy, fresh and herbal dressing.
