The fastest proper dinner you can make — and it tastes like you tried

A minute steak is exactly what it sounds like: a thin steak that cooks in about a minute per side. When your topside arrives pre-sliced, it is already primed for this treatment. The key is a hot pan, dry meat, and a quick pan sauce that transforms the browned bits left in the pan into something worth pouring.

The schnitzel that changed someone’s mind about topside

Schnitzel is arguably the best thing you can do with a thin, lean steak. The pounding tenderises the meat, the breadcrumb crust adds texture and flavour, and the whole thing cooks in under 5 minutes. Your Farmer topside arrives already cut into thin steaks, so a quick pound to 5mm is all the prep they need — and the result is a schnitzel that is genuinely extraordinary: better than veal, better than chicken, and miles ahead of anything that comes in a supermarket packet.

The technique that changed home burger-making forever

The smash burger technique — pressing a ball of mince hard against a screaming hot flat surface to create maximum contact and maximum crust — has transformed the way people think about home burgers. It requires no binding, no egg, no breadcrumbs. Just quality grass-fed beef, a hot pan, and confidence. With Your Farmer mince, the result is a burger that has more flavour in a thin, crispy patty than most thick burgers ever achieve.

Taco Tuesday just got a serious upgrade

Taco mince is one of those recipes that sounds simple — and is — but the difference between a great version and a mediocre one comes entirely down to the spicing and the quality of the beef. Grass-fed beef mince has a bolder, richer flavour that holds up beautifully to warm Mexican spices without being overwhelmed by them.

Firm, flavourful, and one of the most iconic steaks on the planet

The sirloin — also called striploin — is one of the definitive steak experiences. Firm-textured, boldly flavoured, with a fat cap along one edge that renders beautifully during cooking. A 420g grass-fed sirloin is a generous piece of beef, and the fat cap from a grass-fed, ecologically raised animal is where the diet expresses itself most clearly — lighter in colour and more richly flavoured.

Leaner than scotch, bolder than fillet — the rump deserves its moment

Rump comes from the hindquarter — a heavily worked set of muscles that develop tremendous flavour. In grass-fed beef, where the animal has genuinely used its hindquarters walking across real pasture, this lean intensification of flavour is at its most pronounced. Grass-fed rump is naturally rich in zinc, iron and B12.

The most tender cut on the animal — and what to do with the honour

Fillet — or tenderloin — is the muscle that does the least work of any on the animal. As a result, it is the most tender cut, with a fine, almost silky texture. It arrives in your Pack A as two portions — perfect for a date night at home or a celebration dinner. Because fillet is so lean, it has less margin for error: medium-rare (57°C) is the target.

One of the most flavourful cuts on the animal — cooked the way it deserves

The scotch fillet — also known as the rib eye — carries intramuscular fat that renders during cooking and bastes the meat from the inside. In a grass-fed animal that has grazed on diverse pasture, the flavour compounds in that fat are genuinely extraordinary. Cook it to medium-rare (57°C internally) for the best result.

The bangers and mash your family didn't know they were missing

Sausages have a reputation as humble food. But humble doesn't mean simple, and it certainly doesn't mean without flavour — especially when you're starting with grass-fed beef sausages made from animals that ate what cattle are supposed to eat. This is a recipe that takes about an hour — most of it hands-off — and earns the kind of silence at the dinner table that means everyone is too busy eating to talk.
