Alcatra in Portuguese refers to the Heart of Rump. "Picanha" (rump cap) and the "Maminha"(tri-tip) are the other two parts of the rump. It produces high quality, juicy, tender steaks. Whilst appearing leaner than other wagyu cuts, it retains all the wagyu experience. In our opinion, wagyu alcatra is better than the majority of non-wagyu striploin and ribeye steaks. Our own Olive fed Wagyu is an equilibrium between traditional buttery long-lasting finishes found with Japanese Wagyu and the more beefy, iron flavours of Grass-fed UK beef. The olive feed creates an umami taste to the beef, a sumptuous savoury flavour adding depth and richness. |
