Our Centre Cut Fillet is an exceptional cut of beef, perfect for a celebratory meal or a beef 'Wellington'
Fillet is the most underused and smallest muscle on the animal, which makes this the most tender, but least available. Hence this cut is the most sought after and in turn, the most expensive.
The centre cut is taken, as the name suggests, from the middle of a whole fillet. It is an even shape and size, so it's great for cutting into steaks and searing hot; cooking whole as a piece; or for the most luxurious of meals, the 'Wellington'.
This wonderful cut of beef comes from free-roaming native breed cattle that are 100% grass-fed on meadows and pasture at one of our outstanding small, local Suffolk farms.
We dry age our fillet for a minimum of five weeks, then trim and oven prepare to ensure your centre cut arrives ready for you to cook.
Centre cut weighs approx 800g - 900g and should serve 4.

Gerard's Suggestion
Our beef comes from trusted local Suffolk farms, carefully selected for their dedication to quality and sustainable practices. We work closely with farmers like Emily Winter, who slowly matures her 100% grass-fed Lincoln Red herd at Darrow Farm to produce exceptional beef, and the Somerleyton Estate, known for its regeneratively raised Welsh Black and Highland cattle. We are also proud to partner with Natasha Mann, whose award-winning Lincoln Reds graze by the River Alde’s lush meadows, yielding beautifully marbled, rich, and tender beef. Receiving whole carcasses allows us to hang the meat for 4 - 8 weeks (or more by request), ensuring superior flavour and texture.
> Roast and Pan-fry
1. Bring the fillet to room temperature, season with sea salt and some cracked black pepper
and rub with a little oil
2. Heat up a good solid frying pan
3. Sear quickly on a high heat with some salty butter and a crushed garlic clove. Baste and turn regularly for 6-8 minutes.
4. You could pop in a hot oven for 5 minutes (optional)
5. Rest on a wooden board, then cut into thin slices to share.
