Part of beef

Features of Okinawa brand "Motobu beef" by part

  • Galbi

    This cut is the muscle that cows use to breathe, and is characterized by its fine texture and rich sweetness. We recommend grilling it until the oil that has melted from it is slightly burnt.

    It goes great with carbonated drinks such as beer and highballs!

  • sirloin

    It is called "loin" because it is "suitable for roasting." There are three types of beef loin: "sirloin," which is the king of loins; "chuck loin," which has a fine texture and rich flavor; and "rib loin," which is soft and has a rich, fatty flavor.

    The shoulder loin can be used for yakiniku and sukiyaki, the rib roast is for steak and shabu-shabu, and the sirloin is an honor student who can do anything. You can make the most of the best of each. It also goes great with red wine!

  • Peaches

    There are four types of beef thighs, each with a different way to eat it. "Uchi Momo" is soft with little fat and habit, so it is suitable for grilled meat and roast beef. "Sotomomo" has a rich taste and is hard, so it is suitable for sukiyaki and stewed dishes. "Shintama" has a deep taste of fat, so it is used for grilled meat and shabu-shabu. And "Ranichi" is the softest among peaches, so it is recommended for steak.

  • tongue

    Although it is a famous part, in fact, you can only take about 1~2kg from a cow of about 500kg.

    For thin slices, it is recommended to bake only one side on one side, and for thick slices, it is recommended to slowly bake both sides at a low temperature.

  • Harami

    Of the diaphragm of cows, it is the site on the back side and contains a moderate amount of fat. Therefore, it is characterized by a strong umami taste of meat. We recommend cutting at least 1 cm thick. You can feel the umami more.

    The more you bite, the more you will be ♪ captivated by harami
