Free Range Ox Cheek

Product Details

Ox cheek is a low-fat offal, so if you're looking for a tasty but less common cut of meat that won't pile on the pounds, ox cheek is the offal for you. As ox cheek is so lean and dense, it can be tough if not cooked correctly. This is why it's best to slow cook and braise ox cheek to leave a tender and flavoursome meat cut. Ox cheek has traditionally been popular in ethnic and French cooking, but is just as at home in traditional British stews and casseroles. To find out how best to cook your free range ox cheek, why not try the recipe listed below for a braised ox cheek, mash and red wine jus dish? Our beef is traditional Scottish beef sourced straight from the Glens and is completely free range, grass-fed and raised in superior conditions. We work closely with MacDuff Scottish beef farmers who supply our ox cheek, and you can find out more about them in the Our Farms section of the website. By doing this we aim to give you complete traceability for your free range meat, so you can be sure the meat you're eating is 100% free range and has had a good life.

 Makes a mean ragu when sloe cooked with carrots, celeriac and any other bits of veg really. Also makes a lovely steak and kidney pie when teamed up with your ox kidney. Delicious underrated cut of meat.
