Flat Iron Steak
A hidden gem — lean, bold, and surprisingly tender.
Our Flat Iron Steak comes from the top blade (shoulder) and is known for delivering tenderness second only to the tenderloin, all while keeping a lean profile. Each vacuum-sealed package includes one steak (~1.0 lb.). This is the steak for those who want bold beef flavor, edge-to-edge texture, and a leaner cut that still eats like a treat.
Why You'll Love It:
- Exceptional tenderness: Often ranked second to tenderloin when properly trimmed.
- Rich beefy flavor: Comes from the shoulder for robust, savory character without excess fat.
- Lean yet satisfying: Moderate fat content gives flavor without being heavy.
- Perfect for everyday premium: A steak that bridges everyday use and gourmet experience.
- Raised in place: 100% grass-fed & finished on High Meadows’ mountain pastures — no hormones, no antibiotics.
How to Cook:
- High-heat sear: Preheat a cast iron or grill until hot; sear 2–3 minutes per side for medium-rare.
- Reverse-sear option: Cook gently at low temp until nearly at target, then sear for crust.
- Don’t overcook: Best at medium-rare to medium (≈130-135 °F); push further and it may toughen.
- Slice against the grain: The grain direction can change; cut across it for the best chew.
