Barbecue Cooking Guide (Recommended)

Step 1: Bring to Room Temperature

Take the steak out of the fridge 30–45 minutes before cooking.

Step 2: Season Simply

Rub with a little olive oil, then season generously with coarse sea salt and cracked black pepper.

Step 3: Get the Grill Hot

Your barbecue should be roaring hot – you want that intense sear.

Step 4: Cook

Place directly over the heat and cook for:

• Rare: 3–4 minutes per side

• Medium Rare: 4–5 minutes per side

• Medium: 5–6 minutes per side

Avoid overcooking – flat iron is best served pink.

Step 5: Rest

Remove from the grill and rest for at least 5–10 minutes. This is crucial for maximum juiciness.

Step 6: Slice Properly

Slice thinly against the grain for the most tender result.

This diversity in characteristics—ranging from the depth of colour in the muscle to the distribution and thickness of fat—is an authentic feature of meat products. Our experienced butchers carefully select and prepare every cut to ensure it meets our rigorous standards for quality, tenderness, and flavour, while embracing the natural variances that make each piece truly one-of-a-kind
