A striploin joint for roasting
This roast is prepared from beef striploin and supplied as a single piece weighing approximately 1.5 kg. Keeping the joint whole allows it to be roasted first and then sliced to the thickness you prefer.
It can be served freshly cooked, warm or cold and paired with different sauces or side dishes depending on the meal.
How to cook it
Before placing it in the oven, you can brown the outside in a hot frying pan or casserole. Then continue cooking in the oven, adjusting the time to the size of the joint and the level of doneness you prefer.
Once out of the oven, allowing the meat to rest before slicing helps it retain its juices. To serve it cold, let it cool before slicing.
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.
