Rump and Picanha Steak
Code: Rump B005
Description
The cap of the rump is separated from the rump. The silver gristle is removed from the cap muscle. Both muscles are cut into steaks of the required weight. The benefits are that the steaks will not fall apart and the cap (picanha) can be cut across the grain and is, therefore, more tender.
