How to cook it

Start fat side down in a cold pan to render, then a fast sear in its own fat.

Steak doneness is a preference. USDA: whole beef/lamb 63 °C before removal + 3 min rest. For children, pregnant people, older adults or weakened immunity: choose medium-well or above and check with a thermometer. Mince, burgers, kafta and meat sausages: 71 °C. Poultry: 74 °C.

Method Pan · its own fat
Time 6–7 min
Pull at 50 °C · medium-rare
Rest 3 min

Directions

  1. Score the fat cap in a light criss-cross. Salt just before cooking.
  2. Stand it fat side down in a cold pan, turn the heat up and render for 3 minutes.
  3. Sear 60–90 seconds a side in its own fat.
  4. Pull at 50 °C.
  5. Rest 3 minutes and slice thin against the grain.
🔥 Butcher’s tip Keep the rendered fat. Potatoes or mushrooms fried in it are the best side you'll make.
