Meat knowledge

The Flat Iron Steak bears its name, as already suspected, because of its shape. It actually resembles an iron. But please don't use it for cooking. However, the newcomer cut is perfect for grilling and perfect short roasts.

In Austria, the Flat Iron Steak is also called the classic Schulterscherzl. A special feature of the Flat Iron Steak is the combination of intensive aroma and a high but fine marbling. This means that even high heat does not affect the meat and it remains wonderfully tender and juicy.

The Flat Iron Steak is taken from the shovel or shield piece and thus lies directly under the shoulder blade. It usually has a tendon running through it, which is removed during this fine steak cut.

However, if the meat is used for roasting or braising, the tendon might as well stay in. It becomes buttery soft after hours of braising.

Long undiscovered - The Flat Iron Steak

With such a stunning flavour that the tender steak brings, the question arises as to why it has remained undiscovered for so long. There is a relatively simple reason for this, namely its location.

The shoulder, with the shovel piece, is arguably one of those parts of the animal that does particularly much moving. No wonder, then, that cuts of meat from this area have a strong connective tissue or musculature and are used accordingly as braised cuts. The fact that there is such a wonderfully juicy and tender piece here, of all places, has probably amazed many.

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.
