Our flat iron steak tacos are great for a quick weeknight meal or your weekend tailgate party. They are simple but tasty and will truly be a fan favorite.
The flat iron
steak is named for is uniformity in thickness and rectangular shape. It has really grown in popularity as a less expensive,
but very tender cut from the chuck, or shoulder, primal. The flat iron is great
on the grill but can be marinaded and seasoned much like a flank or skirt steak.
We recommend searing it at high heat and then finishing to medium rare at a
lower temperature.
Flat
irons are highly marbled, full of beef flavor and tender.
As a busy farm mom, I'm always looking for easy, hands-off dinner ideas that the whole family will love. This one hits the spot every time. It's also a huge favorite for large groups.
We make this for our Farm Day field trip volunteers and for a church potluck but also just as an easy crockpot meal.
Irish Beef Stew is not just for St. Patrick's Day. This hearty stew is great for any cold night. This traditional Irish Stew includes potatoes, a staple in Irish food, flavorful chuck stew meat, veggies, and Guinness beer. Stews are a great way to take a tougher cut of meat and cook it until it's tender. Historically, Irish Stew was made from lamb, an older lamb that would have been tough, necessitating stewing so that it would be tender. That's not a concern with our dry aged Akaushi stew meat but cooking with beer and rich root vegetables make for a satisfying, warm meal.
