Hearty, wholesome, and packed with flavour, our diced beef steak is a slow-cooking essential. Cut from the chuck of heritage breed cattle, it's marbled with just enough fat and connective tissue to melt into rich, tender mouthfuls over a low, slow cook. Raised on lush pastures by small-scale British farmers, our free-range beef delivers the kind of taste only time, care, and good farming can produce.
Whether you're cooking a classic stew, a rich pie filling, or a spiced curry, this versatile cut guarantees depth of flavour and satisfying texture.
A firm favourite for batch cooking, it's also a smart choice for midweek meals that need a little comfort. Brown it first to develop flavour, then let it gently braise into something special. Add a splash of red wine or ale, and enjoy the kind of slow-cooked dinners that warm from the inside out.
To slow cook, lightly fry the diced steak before adding in a pre-prepared mirepoix of chopped onion, carrot, and celeriac. Continue to lightly fry, then adding in half a bottle of red wine or a favourite ale, as well as beef stock, and cooking long and slow. Serve with creamy mashed potato, seasonal vegetables, and English grain mustard.
About the cut
These generous pieces of diced beef steak are cut from the chuck of the beast, which is the neck and shoulders of the animal. The meat here is typically tougher than the prime cuts, but the generous marbling and connective tissue breaks down upon slow cooking to offer melting tenderness in the pot. A must for slow cooking with our prime grass fed beef coming into its own.
About the breed
we'll choose from our selection of available breeds
It's good to eat and enjoy heritage breed meat from British breeds, showing farmers that there is a market for their herds and flocks and encourage them to rear them. Without a demand for their meat, many breeds would die out altogether. When intensive farming reigned unchallenged in the second half of the last century, many of our traditional breeds all but disappeared because they don't take kindly to factory farming. We want to change this and help more people realise that we need to safeguard the natural biodiversity of our farm animals and to demand meat with intrinsic flavour that comes from higher welfare systems. All of our meat fits that bill perfectly.

FAQ
Looking for ways to use diced beef that go beyond the usual stew? This versatile cut is a go-to for hearty, flavour-packed meals year-round.
Try these ideas to make the most of your diced beef steak:
Beef bourguignon - a French classic, slow-cooked in red wine with mushrooms and pancetta.
Beef and ale pie - rich, tender beef encased in golden pastry.
Spicy beef curry - marinate the beef in yoghurt and spices before simmering slowly for a melt-in-the-mouth texture.
Diced beef chilli - a chunkier, more rustic version of the usual mince-based dish.
Stroganoff-style skillet - pan-fry and finish with mushrooms, mustard, and a swirl of crème fraîche.
These diced beef dishes are ideal for batch cooking, freezing, or next-day leftovers, making dinner times easier without sacrificing flavour.
Yes, but only briefly. Pan-frying diced beef works best for browning before slow cooking. Avoid overcooking quickly as the meat can become tough - it's better suited to longer, gentler methods.
We don't recommend it. For best results, defrost thoroughly in the fridge first - this ensures even cooking and better texture.
We recommend around 150-200g per person, depending on the dish. For stews or casseroles with added veg, lean toward 150g. For meat-forward dishes like pies, closer to 200g is ideal.
