Rubia Gallega Rib Steak 1kg - Dry-Aged Galician Breed Beef, 45-Day Aged, Marbled Fat, Charcoal-Grilled Flavor Reviews

Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

Rubia Gallega Rib Steak 1kg Rubia Gallega is a breed of cattle indigenous to Galicia. This beef is produced exclusively from this breed. The cattle graze on the meadows of Galicia for up to 8-12 years, allowing them to grow big and put on layers of marbled fat. This results in an extraordinary flavour, an intense beefy-ness, and succulence. The beef is then dry-aged for 45 days, further intensifying the flavour and tenderizing the meat. Cooking Rubia Gallega Beef: This beef is traditionally cooked over charcoal, but it will also cook beautifully on a plancha or on a cast iron griddle or pan. The important thing to remember is that Rubia Gallega beef has sufficient fat within each steak, so just a light greasing of the pan is necessary.

I divided this big hunk of meat into three parts and although I could taste the promise of something truly delicious, no matter the method used: frying in olive oil, frying in butter or roasting in the oven – the steak failed to deliver. Perhaps I was unlucky: my piece was full of fat and inedible gristle and in the end, I think I salvaged about a fifth of the whole lot. Not a pleasant steak experience. I probably should head to Spain and try my luck there with this type of meat.

After the disappointment with the previous steak we decided to soak this steak in brine for a few hours. We then cooked it “ Sous Vide” at 49°c for just over an hour and then we seared it in a very hot frying pan three minutes Aeschylus side plus a bit of time on its back to get the fat moving It was sensational. Absolutely delicious. A bit chewy but that did not detract for me. The flavour of the meat and the fat was unbelievable.

Beautiful, was looking for a retailer for these cuts and Basco did not disappoint! My dad is from Galicia and came round for father's day and we cooked the secreto and allegations rib steak on the BBQ. He was very impressed. All you need is salt and nothing else. The meats are very rich and tender. Would really recommend and would buy both again!
