Petit Tender

Teres Major, a real insider tip of the steak culture, comes from the bow or shoulder of beef and is ideal for short frying, for example as a steak.

Originally a butcher's cut set aside by connoisseurs, the Teres Major weighs around 300-350g and is also known as a flat fillet, petite tender or shoulder roll.

A great cut that doesn't require much preparation. Simply take it out of the cooler half an hour before preparation and fry it without seasoning for about 2-3 minutes per side.

Now take the piece off the grill and let it rest briefly. It's important with the second cuts; that they are sliced finely. Use a good salt/sea salt and a mild pepper.

Enjoyment tip: medium rare, medium

Good appetit

Nice to know:

The name comes from the medical name Musculus Teres Major, known for its role in the movement of the legs. Despite its medicinal connection, this cut of meat is popular in the steak world due to its tenderness and short-fiber structure.

The muscle sits on the inside of the shoulder blade, especially in grazing animals that are constantly moving, and provides a delicate taste experience.

GROUNDBREAKING

We first bred Wagyu in the late 1980s with high-quality cattle and loved its deep flavor and sublime marbling.

We have mastered this valuable combination ever since. It is work that requires precision, genetic mastery and a dedication to endless refinement and innovation.

We control our entire supply chain, from the ranches where our cattle are raised to our humane processing facility to our in-house customer care team.

Outsourcing would be easy, but being a pioneer doesn't mean doing the job the easy way.
