Angus Wagyu USA Bavette BMS 5+

Angus Wagyu USA Bavette BMS 5+ is one for steak lovers who enjoy proper beef flavour and a little bite. Bavette already has plenty of character on its own, and here that comes together with the marbling you expect from Wagyu. The BMS 5+ indicates visible intramuscular fat running through the meat. During cooking, that fat melts and helps keep the bavette juicy. Do not expect the almost textureless tenderness of fillet. Bavette is all about grain, flavour and character. Sear it hard and fast, allow it to rest and always slice across the grain. That last step really matters with this cut.

What is bavette?

Bavette is cut from the flank area of the animal and is recognised by its long, coarse muscle fibres. That grain gives the steak its typical bite and makes it a favourite for both barbecue cooking and a very hot frying pan. Bavette does not need much fuss. Get the grill or pan properly hot, cook the steak preferably rare to medium and let it rest for a few minutes afterwards. Before slicing, take a good look at the direction of the grain and cut straight across it. Thin slices, coarse salt and perhaps a spoonful of chimichurri are more than enough.

Angus Wagyu USA

American Black Marble Wagyu is a cross between Wagyu and Black Angus cattle. According to our breed information, the cattle grow up in open areas and are finished during the final period on a balanced grain diet. This contributes to the refined flavour and marbling associated with the meat. Wagyu brings the characteristic intramuscular fat, while Black Angus adds beef flavour and structure. With bavette, that combination works particularly well. You retain the recognisable coarse grain of the cut, while the extra marbling adds richness and juiciness. BMS means Beef Marbling Score and refers to the visible amount of intramuscular fat in the meat. This bavette is graded BMS 5+, so that marbling plays a clear part once the steak hits the heat.
