Dry-aged beef strips for hot-stone cooking

Matured beef ready for quick cooking

This beef comes from cuts matured for more than 20 days. It has intramuscular fat and a pronounced flavour and is supplied already sliced for quick preparation either at the table or in the kitchen.

The format is particularly suited to hot-stone cooking, although it can also be prepared on a properly heated griddle or in a frying pan.

How to cook it

If using a hot stone, allow it to reach a high temperature before cooking. Place small portions of beef on the surface and cook each piece to your preferred doneness.

For a griddle or frying pan, use a properly heated surface and avoid overcrowding it so the temperature does not drop sharply.

The beef is supplied sliced in vacuum-packed trays.

About Tolecarnes

Tolecarnes is a family-run cattle farm based in Menasalbas, at the foot of the Montes de Toledo, with three generations of experience raising cattle.

Its calves are raised by the farm from birth and spend much of the year grazing freely on its dehesa in the Montes de Toledo. The wetter conditions on the northern side of the mountains provide natural pasture for a large part of the year, allowing the cattle to remain outdoors and active in an open environment.

During winter, when fresh pasture is less abundant, their diet is supplemented with forage collected during the more productive months and with feed produced by Cooperativa Valle de Mena, of which Tolecarnes is a member. This feed is made from plant-based ingredients, giving the farm greater control over the animals' diet.

Tolecarnes oversees the farming process from the birth of its calves through to the sale of the meat, maintaining a traditional approach to cattle farming closely connected to the Montes de Toledo.
