Heritage Dexter Beef Picanha

Dexter Beef Picanha is a rare and delicious cut, celebrated for its exceptional depth of flavour and rich, juicy texture that reflect the heritage of this unique breed. Dexter cattle, the smallest native breed in the UK, produce a full-bodied, flavourful meat thanks to traditional, pasture-raised methods. Picanha, known as the “rump cap” or “top sirloin cap,” is particularly popular in Brazilian cuisine for its tender, juicy profile and thick fat cap that infuses the meat with incredible taste when cooked.

Ideal for grilling or roasting, Picanha should be cooked to medium-rare to preserve its tenderness and unique flavour. For best results, sear the Picanha fat-side down on high heat to render the fat, then finish over lower heat to achieve a perfectly caramelized crust and juicy interior. This Dexter Beef Picanha is perfect for those who appreciate the exceptional taste of small-breed, heritage beef that’s locally sourced from Scottish farms and meticulously handled to bring out the best in each cut.
