Rump Steak 2x
Rump steak comes from the back side of the cow. It is a well-worked part of the animal, which makes it less tender than fillet and sirloin. People choose rump, however, for its exceptional flavour. It is full of beefy, mineral, savoury notes and has a satisfying texture. Rump steak is very good value, and offers the discerning diner a fantastic bit of steak for the money.
We source local meat from farms in Wiltshire, Somerset and the South West. Wiltshire Country Fayre makes sure that we get the absolute best and most sustainable breeds for the season. Our free range cows feed on grass and lead happy lives in the great British countryside. By working with local produce and farmers, we promote and encourage a sustainable and ethical approach to meat eating. This reduces animal stress and lowers food miles as much as possible.
Cooking Instructions
Rump Steak Cooking Instructions
Grill Method:
Preparation: Start by removing the rump steak from the fridge at least 30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature. This step ensures even cooking throughout the steak.
Seasoning: Generously rub the steak with olive oil, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. This simple seasoning will enhance the natural flavors when grilling.
Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill or frying pan until it’s smoking hot. A high heat is essential to achieve a perfectly grilled rump steak with those desirable char marks.
Cooking: Place the steak on the hot grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for a medium-rare finish. Adjust the cooking time according to your preference. The ideal internal temperature should reach 54-57°C.
Resting: Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes under foil. Resting allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy, tender steak.
Serve: Slice the rump steak against the grain and serve it with roasted vegetables and creamy mashed potatoes for a classic steak dinner experience.
Oven Method:
Preparation: Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan) or gas mark 6. As with the grilling method, allow the rump steak to reach room temperature before cooking.
Seasoning: Rub the steak with olive oil, salt, and pepper to create a flavorful crust when searing.
Searing: Heat an ovenproof pan over high heat and sear the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. This step locks in the juices.
Oven Cooking: Transfer the seared steak to the preheated oven and cook for 10-12 minutes for medium-rare. Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect doneness.
Resting: Allow the steak to rest for 5 minutes under foil after removing it from the oven.
Serve: Pair the rump steak with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes for a delicious oven-cooked steak dinner.
Storage Instructions
To maintain the freshness and quality of your Rump Steak, it is recommended to store it in the refrigerator at a temperature of 32°F to 40°F (0°C to 4°C). Keep the steak in its original packaging or place it in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag to prevent any potential cross-contamination or exposure to odors. Properly stored, the Rump Steak can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days. If you want to extend its shelf life, you can also freeze the steak. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or place it in a freezer-safe bag before placing it in the freezer. Frozen Rump Steak can maintain its quality for approximately 2-3 months. Remember to thaw frozen steak in the refrigerator before cooking for the best results.
