Teres Major

Chefs and butchers discovered the teres major many years ago, but it’s a delicious cut to add to your steak shopping list. Each teres major is shaped like a small beef tenderloin and can be cooked or grilled whole and then sliced across the grain into round medallions. This naturally tender cut requires a skilled butcher to extract it from the shoulder muscles, so it is not commonly found in grocery meat cases. The teres major is tender with a lot of beef flavor. It’s delicious with just salt and pepper, but this steak works well with your favorite seasonings and sauces. Average weight: 1.25 lbs. Each package contains 2 steaks.
