STEAK OF THE MONTH
T-bone and Cowboy Steak from Rubia Gallega
The RUBIA GALLEGA is the purest breed of the Vaca Gallega (since it is not crossed with other breeds) and is originally from Galicia, a region located in northern Spain, overlooking the ocean.
It is recognized by its red-brown coat, from which it takes the name of “rubia” which in Spanish means “blonde” and can reach a weight ranging from 600 to 800 kg.
The rusticity of the breed and the unique environment of Galicia, with its lush pastures and clean air, contribute to the high quality of the meat, considered the best in the world according to the documentary “Steak (R)evolution”
The meat is deep red in colour, has a good marbling and the characteristic yellow fat bark which, when cooked with the right degree of cooking, gives it a rich and enveloping flavor for the palate.
Those who are lucky enough to taste it appreciate all its characteristics : the intense and buttery taste, the unique aroma.
For an unforgettable carnivorous experience, you will savor it at its best thanks to the two cuts on the bone, rib and Florentine, and with a dry-aged maturation of 60 days.
