Flank steaks are one of the more beloved economy cuts available. Often served as London Broil in the United States, and very popular as bavette in France, they are also used in Chinese stir fries, Tex-Mex fajitas, and even make great beef jerky.
Kobe beef (aka wagyu beef) is from a breed of cow specially raised to increase its percentage of fat marbling to consistently high levels. More marbling leads to more flavor, tenderness, and moisture as the fat melts during the cooking process. Thus, wagyu flank steaks are both more flavorful and more tender than those cut from conventional beef.
These Kobe steaks are cut from grade 3 Kobe beef. For an explanation of what this means, please read Kobe Beef Grades. If that seems low, keep in mind that the scale was designed with more expensive Kobe steaks like Kobe ribeye steaks and Kobe NY strip steaks in mind, meaning that it’s actually a pretty good grade for the less marbled flank steak cut.
Our Australian Kobe beef is hormone and sub-therapeutic antibiotic free.
Applications: Because it can be tough, flank steak is traditionally marinated prior to grilling/broiling. It is also sometimes braised. Flank steak marinades usually include vinegar, wine, pineapple juice, or other acidic ingredients to help tenderize the meat. You should always cut this steak across the grain of the meat.
