Sutcha Prime beef striploin

Sutcha grass fed beef striploin steak Ireland

Lean meat due to a grass-fed diet on beautiful, year-round moist pastures.  The excellent quality ensures tender meat from animals under 30 months of age. Striploin comes from the longest muscle in the back of the beef, behind the ribs (ribeye) but in front of the rump. The T-Bone and Porterhouse cuts (both with bone and fillet parts) also come from this area. Often a leaner cut, less marbled than the rib-eye, with a high protein and low fat content.
Cattle have been important in Ireland for millennia, and in the past a man's wealth was measured by the number of cattle he owned. The Irish word for road – bóthar – literally means a cow-path, wide enough for two cattle to pass each other. A “boreen” or little road was only wide enough for one animal. The abundant rainfall is the most obvious evidence of this, making Ireland's lush green pastures the mainstay of Irish agriculture. While climate and geology are important, history and culture also play their part. Cattle have been part of the Irish landscape for over five thousand years and their presence has helped to shape the political, social and cultural fabric of the country. Traditionally the cow was a unit of currency and cattle were a measure of status. Farming was based on good quality grazing land and breeds such as the shorthorn, hereford and angus were introduced from across the water. Irish breeders quickly excelled with these new breeds and exported them back to their home countries in large numbers. With this new found productivity, Ireland became a major exporter of beef. It is a role that has continued to the present day. Today Ireland is a centre of excellence for many breeds and a major source of genetic improvement for farmers worldwide. Ireland now exports about 90% of its beef production. 

Ireland has a population of about 4.5 million people, yet it is estimated that it produces enough beef each year to feed 28 million people.  Cattle benefit from Europe’s longest grass-growing season, grazing on fresh grass and clover all year round. By the time they are slaughtered, almost 90% of their diet will have been grass – by far the highest proportion in Europe. Scientific studies show that grass is a more natural diet for beef cattle than cereals. Grass-fed beef has a more even distribution of fat – it is better marbled – which makes it more enjoyable to eat. Grass-fed beef is also higher in vitamin A and beta-carotene, giving Irish beef its rich burgundy colour. In addition, higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids and CLA’s are increasingly being linked by scientific studies to beneficial effects on human health, such as reducing cholesterol and lowering the risk of cancer. Nowhere is the saying “you are what you eat” more true – the consumer who eats grass-fed beef is getting a significant health benefit.

Usage

Striploin is excellent for grilling or pan-frying. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, start with high heat to get a nice golden brown crust on the steak. Once cooked to your liking, let it rest for a few minutes in a warm place to reduce the amount of juices that escape when you slice into it.
