Cheek (1/2lb)

These bone-in beauties, cut from the face of the cow, simmer into delectable, fall-apart masterpieces that'll leave you humming praises long after the last bite. Raised on lush pastures and finished on 100% grass, our beef cheeks offer an irresistible indulgence that satisfies your craving for comfort food and your health-conscious side.

Why Go Cheek? Buckle Up for Flavor Nirvana:

• Flavor Fiesta: Experience the difference grass-fed makes! Deep, complex taste infused with hints of bone marrow, collagen, and slow-cooking magic, thanks to their marbling and melt-in-your-mouth textures. Prepare to be wowed by every soul-soothing bite.
• Tender Transformation: Don't let the "cheek" part fool you! Properly braised beef cheeks, whether in stews, ragu, or tacos, transform into fork-tender, pull-apart bliss. They are so tender they practically dissolve on your tongue!
• Budget Bonanza: Ditch the hefty price tags of fancy cuts. Beef cheeks offer restaurant-quality flavor without breaking the bank. Feed the whole family (and maybe the neighbors) without depleting the royal treasury!
• Healthy Hero: Skip the guilt, savor the goodness! Grass-fed beef is naturally leaner and higher in Omega-3s, making indulgence a win-win for your taste buds and health. Eat like a gourmand, feel like a champion!
• Culinary Canvas: From classic French bourguignon and Italian braises to Asian-inspired rendangs and Mexican barbacoa, these versatile cheeks adapt to any culinary canvas. The possibilities are endless: Braise, slow-cook, simmer, or pressure cook!

Unlocking the Cheek's Inner Magic:

• Low & Slow Hero: Embrace the low and slow methods for ultimate tenderness and rich flavor. Braise in flavorful liquids for hours, letting the magic of time and collagen weave its spell. Patience is a virtue (and it rewards you with divine broth and melt-in-your-mouth meat)!
• Spice Symphony: Don't shy away from bold flavors! Star anise, smoked paprika, or Korean gochujang can give your beef cheeks a kick you'll crave. Let the taste buds tango!
• Bone Up on Basics: Leave the bones in! They add flavor, depth, and collagen to your broth. Plus, gnawing on them is a primal pleasure we won't judge.
• Bonus Tip: Don't overcook! Aim for an internal temperature of 195°F for pull-apart perfection. Remember, less is more when it comes to tenderness and preventing dryness!
