Hanger Steak

Bold, beefy, and undeniably unique, the Hanger Steak is cut from the plate primal, where it hangs between the rib and loin—hence the name. Often referred to as the “butcher’s steak”, this cut was traditionally kept by butchers for themselves rather than sold to customers, thanks to its exceptional tenderness and deep, satisfying flavor.

Each animal yields only one Hanger Steak, making it a rare and coveted cut. It features a loose, open grain and rich marbling that delivers intense Angus beef flavor with every bite. Best cooked quickly over high heat and served medium-rare, it’s ideal for grilling, pan searing, or slicing for bistro-style steak frites, tacos, or hearty salads.

With its unique texture and full-bodied flavor, the Hanger Steak bridges the gap between everyday cooking and gourmet indulgence. It’s the kind of cut that turns casual dinners into something memorable.

Rare, rustic, and full of character — this is a true butcher’s secret worth discovering.
