The flat iron comes from the flavorful chuck, the second most tender cut on the animal behind only the tenderloin. The Certified Piedmontese Flat Iron is even more tender given the natural properties of the Piedmontese breed. Incredibly healthy and incredibly delicious!
The Piedmontese breed has a naturally occurring (inactive) myostatin gene. This produces cattle with especially heavy musculature yielding beef that: does not rely solely on fatty marbling for tenderness, is naturally lean with fewer calories, has less fat and more protein than other breeds, is supremely tender with rich beefy flavor. INcredibly healthy and incredibly delicious! Certified Piedmontese cattle are raised on family farms across the Great Plains where they roam on open rangelands and enjoy a natural diet. No added growth hormons, steroids or antibiotics.
Each steak is 1.5-2 lbs. Origin: Nebraska
