O'connor Eye Round Steaks (minute steaks)

Eye Round steaks are a flavorful and inexpensive cut if you know how to prepare them. Because this is a hard-working muscle with very little natural fat, we purposely cut these steaks to a thin 1cm to maximize tenderness and prevent a tough chew. For the best eating experience, treat them as "minute steaks" by giving them a lightning-fast, 60-second sear per side in a screaming-hot pan, or slice them raw into strips for a quick stir-fry. Be sure to cook them quickly and keep them strictly medium-rare to lock in their moisture. 2-pack, each piece about 90-100g. About the producer: Grass-fed beef develops its flavor and nutrient profile directly from the pasture on which the cattle are raised, and southern Australia has some of the most lush, nutrient-rich pastureland in the world. It’s here in southern Victoria’s temperate climate with regular rainfall, super clean air, and abundant healthy soil that the Angus and Hereford breeds thrive, unlike the more arid regions in the middle and northern part of the country. And it’s here that the O'connor family have been producing exceptional beef for three generations. Their best beef - the Premium 100% grass-fed range - is in short supply, with most of it going straight to Australia’s top butchers and steakhouses in Melbourne and Sydney. That’s where we tasted it for the first time, and we quickly learned why the Aussies keep most of it for themselves - this is exceptional beef. It pairs robust classic ‘Angus/Hereford’ flavor with a level of marbling that requires abundant healthy pasture and skilled farmers to produce without grain-feeding or antibiotics. After a personal visit to one of their Gippsland farms and abattoir in April (see the pics!), we’re excited to bring some of their Premium cuts directly from the producer to you - no middlemen means great value.
