  • Is there a way to judge if a steak will be flavourful ? Got this one from Drings and it has zero beef flavour and it's chewy and dry.

  • In my experience, not really, other than the more aged the better. What cut is that?

    I didn’t have time to get something proper from the butcher, but these tesco ones came out pretty tasty.

  • Without knowing what the animal was fed and reared there is no way to judge. You can get an idea by the fat (marbling) in the muscle. What cut is it supposed to be?

  • Fat is what brings the sensation of moisture. Better marbling will help, also basting in butter or even pouring melted butter over will give a more moist feeling on the tongue.

    Either cooking reverse sear or letting it stand post normal cooking will also help the meat relax.
