Product Specifications & Notes

Color Note: Due to the vacuum seal, the beef may appear dark red or purple as it is in an oxygen-deprived state. This is normal. Once the pack is opened and the meat rests for 10-15 minutes, the color will naturally restore to a bright red.

Our Processing Standard
-
Fresh Processing: Freshly portioned from chilled primal cuts immediately upon arrival to ensure the meat is in best condition. Each piece is then individually vacuum-sealed and immediately frozen.
Note: As each piece is hand-cut from natural primals, shapes may vary slightly.
Pro Tip: The Secret to Maximum Tenderness
-
The Rest: Always allow the meat to rest for 5-10 minutes after cooking to redistribute the juices.
-
Identify the Grain: Note that the grain of a Tri-Tip can shift directions; observe closely before slicing.
- Slice Against the Grain: Ensure you slice diagonally against the grain. This technique breaks up the long muscle fibers, making every bite incredibly tender and succulent.
