Rump Steaks:
These 200-gram steaks are ideal for the smaller appetite or those that are watching their daily intake. These portion sizes are ideal for the kids that want something other than chicken or pork, they are easy to cut with only a little fat on the outside. To make the steaks a little softer you can always tap them with a garlic hammer or a rolling pin to help the meat breakdown before cooking.
The texture of our Rump Steaks is coarser than the Sirloin & similar to the texture of the Topside, Top Rump & silverside. The steaks have great flavour because of the texture & deliver a great experience. The steaks are best cooked to medium to well done as they will be moist & the meat will soften a little to be easier cut. The rich deep red colour will lighten once the steaks are exposed to the air, this is perfect when you are applying your seasoning to them as they are coming up to nearer room temperature before cooking.
The natural vitamins, minerals & protein found in good quality red meat are essential to a healthy balanced diet, so the Rump Steaks are ideal because as it is a little course it will have a higher concentration. The slender fat on the outside can be removed after cooking to give leaner steaks for a high protein diet.
A good steak doesn’t need to be expensive & when you can have something tasty that’s good for you, then it’s a real bonus.
Packing two steaks per tray helps to reduce the use of plastic & helps reduce our carbon footprint. The recyclable trays hold the shape of the steaks & protect them whilst in storage or being delivered to your door. The vacuum sealing process sucks the natural moisture of the steaks into the meat itself & only helps to increase the flavour during the cooking. They stop any other food flavours from tainting the steak when in your fridge, also they are perfect for bringing up to room temperature in as they prevent the meat from drying out.
When cutting all our meats, we ensure that it is done at low temperature to stop the meat from losing moisture, to reduce the natural bacteria growth, making sure that when packed within a few minutes they are as fresh as the moment they were cut. All the processes in place at our partner factories are designed to preserve the shape, flavour, texture & shelf life of all our different cuts.
The process from farm to fork is designed to maximise value for money & minimise waste, with welfare & the environment top of the list. All our production facilities are BRC Approved & we are always using local herds.
The trays we use for our steaks are recyclable & easy for storing at home. The improvements over the years in technology for recycling has reduced our carbon footprint & with our customers recycling responsibly at home is helping for a Greener Future.

Rump Steaks are an affordable satisfying steak that is often cast aside for the more popular RibEye or Sirloin that are more expensive due to demand. As the muscles that make up a rump are worked harder, the flavour is also rewarded because of this; meaning that you can create more adventurous dishes & flavours because the meat will soak up more of the seasonings & sauces to enhance the flavour further still.
Rump Steaks are not difficult to cook in the kitchen in a pan or skillet, under the grill or wrapped in the oven at a lower temperature but are very good cooked on the BBQ, it loves the smokey aromas! Whatever you decide to season them with or how you are going to cook them, please enjoy & have fun sharing with friends & family, & don’t forget to tag us in your social media posts. #abrandisapromise
