Meat knowledge
What is a rib eye steak?
A wonderful crust on the outside and tender on the inside, with a light bite. That's right, we're talking about one of the most popular cuts of beef: the rib-eye steak. Sometimes also called entrecote, the rib-eye steak enjoys the title of "steak of the connoisseurs and gourmets", among others.
Why? Because it combines exactly what makes a real steak. It's no wonder that no steakhouse menu should be without it. The Mercedes of all meats, so to speak.
What distinguishes our Black Label Rib-Eye Steak?
With our Fitmeat Black Label, we select the crème de la crème of our products. They are all carefully selected and distinguished by their particularly high quality as well as marbling.
Our Black Label rib-eye steaks come from the Angus calf and impress with their stunning marbling. In addition to that our Black Label Chuck Steaks are dry-aged for 3 weeks and wet-aged for 2 weeks.
This method is one of the oldest preparation techniques and requires not only a high level of expertise, but also a lot of time, patience and passion. But the wait is duly rewarded: with unique flavours and a fabulous meat consistency that is second to none. The rib-eye steaks are butter-tender, have an intense aroma and an exceptional bite.
How to cook the perfect rib eye steak
Whether on the grill or in the pan, the steak becomes a real highlight in any case. The fine marbling and fat inclusions not only provide extra flavour, they also prevent the meat from drying out quickly.
A short, hot sear is all it takes to get the perfect combination of delicious crust and soft, juicy centre. The meat is then left in the oven to mature to the desired core temperature (we recommend 54 °C).

Herkunft und Haltung

Quality is our highest concern, and in the case of beef, a few factors are crucial. These include the perfect breed of cattle, the age of the animals and optimal feeding, free of concentrated feed. However, this alone is not enough to meet our requirements.
Because we don't do things by halves when it comes to the quality of our meat products! That is why 100% of our animals come from Austria. The farms are located in the Waldviertel in Lower Austria, in Salzburg and in neighbouring Upper Austria. In addition, at Fitmeat we only process the finest meat from heifers and steers.
The meat has a wonderful marbling and taste. Our classic cattle breeds include Red-Angus, Black-Angus, Charolais, Limousin, White-Blue Belgian and Wagyu, as well as various crossbreeds.
Our cattle are 4x AT certified. This means that birth, rearing, butchering and refinement take place 100% in Austria. The value chain therefore remains entirely in Austria.
We distance ourselves from long animal transports and select our partners very carefully. Therefore, we rely on animals that are kept in a species-appropriate manner, born and raised by small farmers, and on butchers who know both the farmer and the animal personally.
Our butchers let the cuts mature on the bone for a long time. This gives us first-class, well-hung meat that does not lose water during roasting and can be enjoyed with a clear conscience.
