Description

The striploin, known in the United States as the New York strip, sits between the ribeye and the fillet in both texture and flavour. It carries enough marbling for richness, but with a firmer, more defined bite and a cleaner, more direct beef flavour. For many, it's the most balanced steak on the animal.

Ours is cut from Creekstone Farms in Kansas, one of the most respected independent beef producers in the United States, and graded USDA Prime: the highest tier of the American grading system, awarded to only the top 3% of beef for the depth and distribution of its marbling. Creekstone's cattle are Black Angus, raised on a strict natural protocol with no hormones, no antibiotics, and an all-vegetarian diet. Animal welfare is certified to standards developed by Dr Temple Grandin, the leading authority in the field.

Cooking Instructions

USDA Prime Striploin Steak - Pan or Barbecue

±300g or ±450g. Serves 1 to 2. Defrost 12–24 hours. Around 6 minutes in the pan.

1. Defrost
Move the pack from freezer to fridge, unopened. Allow 12 to 24 hours. Cook within 24 hours of defrosting. Do not refreeze.

2. Temper
Out of the fridge 40 minutes before cooking, or an hour for the 450g. A cold core gives you a grey band under the crust.

3. Dry and season
Pat every surface completely dry. Season generously with fine sea salt. Hold the pepper until after. It burns in a hard sear.

4. Render the fat edge first
Heat a heavy pan for 3 to 4 minutes. Stand the steak on its fat edge with tongs until that edge is bronzed and the pan has a film of rendered fat. Then lay it flat and cook it in its own fat.

5. Sear
2½ to 3 minutes a side for the 300g, 3½ to 4 for the 450g. Turn once.

6. Pull at 52°C
Medium rare. The striploin keeps its fat on the outside rather than through the muscle, so it has less margin than a ribeye. Beyond 55°C it firms up and loses the balance this cut is bought for.

7. Rest
6 to 8 minutes on a warm plate or a rack. Do not cover tightly. Steam softens the crust.

8. Slice across the grain
Cut across the fibres at 1cm, taking a strip of the fat edge with each slice. The 450g carves neatly for two.

Optional: melt a flavoured butter over the rested steak rather than cooking it in the pan.
