Bone-in veal chop from Greece

Greek Stable-Raised Beef Steak

Greek Stable-Raised Beef Steak

📖 Product Description

This Greek bone-in beef steak is an impressive cut for true lovers of fine meat. It comes from the upper back of the animal and stands out for its generous size, full flavor, and satisfying presence on the plate. The name “stable-raised” has become established because older calves, due to their age, are moved to stalls, resulting in meat with a more mature character and distinctive flavor. This is a steak that immediately catches the eye in the display case and delivers an authentic grilling experience, especially over charcoal. When well-aged, it is best enjoyed medium rare; otherwise, medium doneness brings out its structure and flavor.

🔥 Cooking Method

Charcoal / Grill
Grill over high heat for about 5–7 minutes per side, depending on thickness and desired doneness. For well-aged beef, medium rare is recommended, while for a firmer texture, choose medium.

BBQ
Sear first over high heat to develop a nice crust, then finish cooking over a gentler heat zone.

Pan
In a very hot cast-iron pan, cook for 4–6 minutes per side and let the steak rest before serving.

💡 Chef's Tip

Take the steak out of the fridge 30–40 minutes before cooking and salt it just before placing it on the heat. After cooking, let it rest for 5–8 minutes to retain all its juices.

🍽️ Pairings & Serving

Serve ideally with French fries or roasted potatoes, coarse salt, grilled vegetables, seasonal salad, and a simple herb butter sauce. Pairs exceptionally well with red wine.
