Let's talk scotch fillet
Ah, the humble Scotch fillet – a real treat for any dinner table! This tender cut of beef, also known as rib-eye steak in some places, comes from the rib section of the cow, which gives it that perfect balance of flavour and tenderness. When cooked just right, it’s juicy with a delicious marbling of fat that melts as it cooks, making every bite incredibly satisfying.
Perfect for grilling, pan-frying, or even roasting, the Scotch fillet is versatile enough for a weeknight meal or a special Sunday roast. Serve it up with your favourite sides – a creamy mashed potato, some seasonal greens, or a fresh salad. It ’s just one of those cuts that never disappoints, whether you're cooking for the family or hosting friends for a barbecue.
