Our Galician Whole Beef Fillet is sourced from the highest quality beef in Galicia, Northwest Spain. We only use retired dairy cows between 8 and 12 years old, which are chubbier and have a higher percentage fat content, giving the fillet a distinct and unique flavour. The beef is dry-aged for a minimum of 7 days, allowing for natural grass-fed marbling. This lean, mean, and tender cut is prized for its quality and can be enjoyed as steaks or a roast.

Despite having had a bit of an issue with my delivery, which was sorted as best as possible by customer services, I was extremely happy with the quality of this meat and would buy again. Lovely marble, super tender as expected, and very flavoursome. I have recommended this to some of my friends and would recommend anyone here to try.

could be bad luck, I received two pieces of meat from the same box, and all the ice packs were wrapped around the pork when I opened the box, the pork was frozen solid when I received it but the fillet was no longer even vacuumed, and the meat was just sitting in blood pool. Despite this, we decided to cook some to see if it might still be okay. For me, the smell was not very pleasant, but my dog loved it.

I used this as the centrepiece to a dinner party for 9. It fed everyone very generously with lots of left overs, including the tail of the fillet which I used to make a stroganoff another night. Very nice, deeply flavoured beef, which was particularly pleasant in a fillet cut which can sometimes be a bit lacking in taste.

Firstly, the flavour and tenderness is phenomenal. Genuinely top-drawer. However, you do have to do a fair bit of butchery to remove any silver skin and tendons, especially if you're making a beef Wellington or want the best bit to cut steaks from. Still, I managed to make a Wellington just using the centre cut and It easily fed 6 people plus I had a lot of other nice pieces of beef left over to make mini steak medallions or even a super posh stirfry. So, if you manage to grab this when on offer, it's remarkable value considering the quality.

I bought this to freeze down for one of our Christmas meats. Before doing that I sneaked a couple of 2inch steaks. I cooked one medium rare and one medium well. Regarding flavour and texture this is very different to normal fiillets. If you prefer mature cheddar to mild or medium you will love this. It is more gamey but don’t be put off as not as more subtle than say venison or pheasant. After 10 minute rest time I did find the medium rare far too chewy as the fat did not have time to render unlike the medium well one. Whilst I like medium rare normally I would treat this more like a rib eye, and then some, and would finish a 3 inch cut in a conventional oven. I don't have a sous vide but I reckon it would work very well then finished on a cast iron griddle pan if cooking for a crowd. I dropped a star as even though I went for a 2 inch steak going by the cooking recommendation it would have been inedible at 3 inches. Hoping for even better taste when roasting albeit not a beef wellington as I had planned. Ps. There was a lot of sinew on my piece so whilst you want to retain the yummy fat you won’t regret 10 minutes spent trimming.

The quality and flavour of the Galician Beef Fillet is excepional. Cut into fillets to use immediately, or kept whole and frozen, the quality remains excellent.
