Description
This bone-in shin of free-range beef offers as magnificent an appearance as it does flavour. Slow-cooking on the bone in your favourite tipple (ours is red wine) or stout. Alternatively smoking long and slow with the bone in results in the most tender beef. Serve with mashed potatoes of soft polenta, charred cabbage & F&Co mustard. Love your leftovers by adding them to a ragu and toss with fresh egg pasta and a hint of Parmesan cheese.
How to cook the thor's hammer
For those seeking to leave a lasting impression on their guests, Farmison & Co presents the impressive bone-in beef shin, also known as "Thor's Hammer." This exceptional cut can be discovered within our selection of alternative beef cuts and not only boasts a striking visual appeal but also delivers exquisite flavours. When slow-cooked or smoked with the bone intact, this cut yields incredibly tender beef that simply dissolves in your mouth. Be sure to consult our recipe for tips, and serve with buttery mashed potatoes and seasonal brassicas.
About the breed
Heritage
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.
