1855 Black Angus Hanger steak

Product Specifications & Notes

• Pack Size: Approx. 190g (Weight may vary by +/- 5%)

• 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.

What is a Hanger Steak?

• Also known as the "Butcher's Steak," the Hanger steak is sourced from the diaphragm. Because there is only one per animal, it is a highly prized and rare cut. It is legendary among meat enthusiasts for having the most intense and robust beef flavor of any cut on the entire cattle.

What is Angus Beef?

• Angus is globally recognized as a premier beef breed, celebrated for its superior meat quality and consistent marbling. The 1855 brand exclusively selects purebred "Black Angus" to ensure every cut features fine muscle texture and an aromatic fat profile.

What is the 1855 Brand?

Product Highlights: Bold Beefiness & Culinary Character

• Flavor: Delivers an overwhelming and deep beefy aroma with a high iron content, characteristic of the primal and rustic flavors of authentic American Black Angus.
  
  
• Texture: Features a distinct grain with a remarkably tender and succulent mouthfeel. It provides a satisfying bite while remaining incredibly juicy.
  
  
• Culinary: Its shape is perfect for high-heat searing, which quickly carves out a savory crust and locks in the rich juices. It is highly versatile for French-style bistro steak preparations or classic American grilling.

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 Key to Maximum Tenderness

1. The Rest: Always allow the meat to "Rest" for a few minutes after cooking.
   
   
2. Identify the Grain: Observe the direction of the muscle fibers.
   
   
3. Slice Against the Grain: Ensure you slice diagonally against the grain. This breaks up the long muscle fibers, making every bite incredibly tender and succulent.
