Description
Longhorn Beef Steak Box
English Longhorn has been worked on this island for centuries, but it fell badly out of favour as farming industrialised and the pressure on fast growth increased. Longhorns are slow. They carry fat well and take time to mature properly.
At Huntsham, our Longhorns are raised on Herefordshire pasture, given the time the breed deserves, and hung to develop the full depth of flavour that slow growth produces. The result is beef with real character — a darker colour, a richness in the fat, and a flavour that holds up to serious cooking.
This box brings three cuts together, chosen to show the range of what a well-raised Longhorn can produce.
What’s in the box:
Longhorn Forerib (2 Rib).
The finest roasting joint. The bones conduct heat, the fat bastes as it renders, and the result (rested properly and carved at the table) is one of those meals people talk about afterwards. Supplied on or off the bone, butchered to your preference. Feeds 6-8.
Thick Rib Minute Steaks.
6 × 150g steaks cut from the thick rib. Less celebrated than sirloin, but full of the same depth of flavour. A very hot pan, a minute or two a side, rested well. Fast to cook and hard to improve on.
Longhorn Beef Mince.
2kg of mince that reminds you what mince is supposed to taste like. Rich, well-marbled, and versatile enough for a bolognese, a burger, or a cottage pie worth savouring.
If you’d like to discuss butchery options for the forerib, or add any other cuts to your order, just get in touch when you order.
