Akaushi Bavette Steak

Often called the butcher's best-kept secret, our Akaushi Bavette Steak is one of the most flavorful cuts of beef you'll ever experience. Cut from the sirloin area, Bavette is prized for its rich marbling, loose grain, and exceptional beef flavor that rivals far more expensive steaks.

Raised with care on our Michigan farm, our Akaushi cattle are known for producing beautifully marbled beef with a naturally buttery texture and deep, rich flavor. This combination makes Bavette an outstanding choice for grilling, cast-iron cooking, or slicing thin for fajitas, steak salads, sandwiches, and grain bowls.

Each package contains one Akaushi Bavette Steak weighing approximately 3.5–4.0 pounds, making it an impressive centerpiece for family dinners, backyard cookouts, or special occasions. Because of its generous size, one steak can easily feed several people when sliced across the grain.

What Makes Bavette Steak Special?

Bavette, sometimes called a flap steak, has long been considered a favorite among butchers and professional chefs because it delivers outstanding flavor while remaining versatile and forgiving to cook.

Its open grain allows marinades and seasonings to penetrate beautifully, while the natural marbling keeps the meat juicy and tender. When sliced thin against the grain after resting, Bavette becomes incredibly tender with a rich, buttery bite that's difficult to match.

Cooking Instructions

For the best results, thaw completely before cooking.

Season generously with salt and pepper, then grill or sear over high heat until the internal temperature reaches:

• Rare: 120–125°F
• Medium Rare: 130–135°F (Recommended)
• Medium: 140–145°F

Allow the steak to rest for 10–15 minutes before slicing.

Always slice thin against the grain to maximize tenderness.

Storage

Keep frozen until ready to prepare. Once thawed, cook within 3–5 days. Do not refreeze after thawing.

Is Bavette the same as flank steak? While they are similar in appearance, Bavette has more marbling, a richer flavor, and a more tender texture than traditional flank steak.

How many people will one steak serve? Because each steak weighs approximately 3.5–4.0 pounds, it can comfortably serve 6–10 people depending on portion size and side dishes.
