❄️ Storage and thawing

 

In the freezer

Store at −18 °C or below, in the intact original packaging. Follow the date and instructions printed on the label.

 

In the refrigerator — preferred method

Place the packaging in a container on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator, at 4 °C or below. Allow it to thaw completely before preparation.

 

In cold water — faster method

Submerge the meat in a watertight bag. Change the cold water every 30 minutes, then cook immediately after thawing.

 

Never thaw meat at room temperature. After thawing, store it in the refrigerator and follow the use-by time indicated on the packaging.

 

---

 

🧂 Preparation and seasoning

 

Remove the packaging and carefully pat the thawed bavette steak dry. A well-dried surface promotes beautiful browning during cooking.

 

Season to taste or use your favourite marinade. Always marinate in a covered container in the refrigerator, then remove the excess before searing the meat.

 

Marinade is optional: a few seasonings are enough to enhance the flavour of the beef.

🔥 Barbecue (BBQ) cooking

 

Preheat the barbecue to medium-high heat. Place the thawed bavette steaks on a clean grill and brown both sides.

 

Adjust the heat if the surface browns too quickly. If necessary, move the meat to an indirect heat zone to finish cooking.

 

Check the temperature in the centre of the thickest part, then let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

 

💡 Tip: start checking the temperature early to avoid overcooking.

 

---

 

🍳 Pan cooking

 

Heat a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat with a little cooking oil.

 

Place the thawed and well-dried bavette steaks in the pan, leaving enough space between them. Brown both sides, then reduce the heat as needed.

 

Continue until the recommended internal temperature is reached and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

 

💡 Tip: do not overcrowd the pan to promote beautiful browning.

 

---

 

♨️ Plancha or griddle cooking

 

Preheat the surface over medium-high heat and lightly oil it. Place the thawed bavette steaks and brown each side.

 

Adjust the heat according to their thickness, then continue until the recommended internal temperature is reached. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

 

---

 

🍽️ Oven finishing

 

For a thicker cut, start by searing both sides in a pan compatible with the oven.

 

Then transfer to the oven preheated to 200 °C, or approximately 400 °F, to finish cooking. Monitor the internal temperature rather than relying on a fixed time.

 

Cooking times vary depending on thickness, weight, appliance, and the initial temperature of the meat. Always follow the instructions on the label.

 

---

 

🌡️ Recommended internal temperature

 

For whole beef cuts, Health Canada guidelines are:

 

- Medium-rare: 63 °C (145 °F)

- Medium: 71 °C (160 °F)

- Well done: 77 °C (170 °F)

 

Measure the temperature in the centre of the thickest part.

 

If the label states "mechanically tenderized", reach at least 63 °C and turn the bavette steak over at least twice during cooking.

💡 DKL Tip

 

Before cooking, identify the long lines running through the meat: these are the muscle fibres.

 

After resting, cut thin slices perpendicular to these fibres, slightly on a bias. This shortens the fibres and makes each bite more pleasant to chew.

👨‍🍳 Chef's suggestion

 

Serve your thinly sliced bavette steak with baby potatoes and sautéed mushrooms.

 

Add a shallot sauce at the time of serving to complete the dish while allowing the flavour of the beef and its grilled surface to shine through.

⚠️ Mistakes to avoid

 

Slicing with the fibres

Cut perpendicular to the fibres instead to make chewing easier.

 

Cooking meat that is too wet

Pat the surface dry before searing.

 

Relying solely on colour

Use a thermometer to check the internal temperature.

 

Unnecessarily prolonging the cooking time

Pay particular attention to thin cuts.

 

Marinating on the counter

Always keep the meat in the refrigerator.

 

Reusing utensils that have touched raw meat

Use a clean plate and clean utensils for serving.
