Fillet Steak x 2

£28.56 – £52.71

Fillet steak is the most tender cut of beef. It has little fat, and is best cooked and basted in butter and a little oil. As it is such a tender piece of meat, you can serve it as rare as you like. Fillet steak is finely marbled and comes from the little-worked centre of the sirloin along the back of the cow. Treat this prime ingredient with respect and cook it with care. You and your guests will be rewarded with a truly memorable dish.

We source local meat from farms in Wiltshire, Somerset and the South West. The Black Farmer makes sure that we get the absolute best and most sustainable breeds for the season. Our free range cows feed on grass and lead happy lives in the great British countryside. By working with local produce and farmers, we promote and encourage a sustainable and ethical approach to meat eating. This reduces animal stress and lowers food miles as much as possible.

STORAGE ADVICE
To ensure the freshness and quality of Fillet Steak, proper storage is essential. Store the fillet steak in the refrigerator at a temperature below 40°F (4°C). It is recommended to keep the steak in its original packaging or place it in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag to prevent any potential contamination or exposure to air. Properly stored, fillet steak can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days. If you don’t plan to use it within that time frame, you can also freeze the fillet steak. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place it in a freezer-safe container or bag. Frozen fillet steak can maintain its quality for approximately 3-4 months. When ready to cook, thaw the steak in the refrigerator before cooking it to your desired doneness. Remember to handle and cook the steak safely and consume it within a few days for the best taste and texture.

Here’s cooking instructions for fillet steak:

1. Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet to high heat.
2. Season both sides of the fillet steak generously with salt and pepper.
3. If desired, you can rub the steak with olive oil or melted butter to add extra flavor and help prevent sticking.
4. Place the fillet steak on the hot grill or skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Adjust the cooking time according to your preferred level of doneness.
5. Avoid flipping the steak more than once to ensure a nice sear and even cooking.
6. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For medium-rare, the temperature should be around 130-135°F (54-57°C), medium 140-145°F (60-63°C), and medium-well 150-155°F (65-68°C).
7. Once cooked to your desired doneness, remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures a tender and juicy steak.
8. Slice the fillet steak against the grain and serve immediately.

Remember, cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the steak and the heat source used, so it’s always a good idea to keep an eye on the steak and use a meat thermometer to ensure it’s cooked to your liking. Enjoy your delicious fillet steak!
