The Butcher's Best-Kept Secret
Our Grass-Fed Hanger Steak — known as the Butcher's Steak — is the cut butchers historically kept for themselves. Hanging from the diaphragm between the rib and loin, it delivers an intense, deeply beefy flavor and a tender texture that rivals far more expensive cuts. Sourced from 100% grass-fed and finished cattle raised on American pastures, vacuum-sealed and shipped frozen. No hormones, antibiotics, or fillers. Ever.
What Makes This Different
- 100% Grass-Fed & Finished — A natural diet for a naturally superior flavor and texture.
- The Butcher's Cut — Prized for its intense beef flavor and tenderness, historically kept off the market by butchers themselves.
- No Added Hormones or Antibiotics — A commitment to clean, ethical sourcing you can taste.
- Pasture-Raised in the USA — Supporting sustainable agriculture and independent farms.
- No GMOs, MSG, or Fillers — A pure product, free from artificial additives.
- Individually Vacuum Sealed — Locks in freshness and protects against freezer burn.
How to Cook a Hanger Steak
High heat and a quick cook is the only method for hanger steak. Season generously with our Chain Reaction® Season-All, then sear in a screaming hot cast-iron skillet or grill for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Always slice against the grain — the muscle fibers run at an angle, and cutting with the grain will make it tough. Rest 5 minutes before serving. Pairs beautifully with chimichurri or a red wine reduction.
- Rare: 125°F
- Medium-Rare: 135°F — Recommended for maximum tenderness and flavor.
- Medium: 145°F — Do not exceed; this cut toughens quickly when overcooked.

- Higher in Omega-3 Fatty Acids — A healthier fat ratio than grain-fed beef.
- Rich in CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) — A beneficial fat found in grass-fed ruminants.
- Clean Protein Source — No fillers, no additives, no grain residue.

Frequently Asked Questions
Butchers traditionally kept the hanger steak for themselves rather than selling it — hence the name. There is only one per animal, it hangs from the diaphragm between the rib and loin, and it offers an intensity of beef flavor that rivals far more expensive cuts. It was the insider's cut before the rest of the world caught on.
Yes. Sourced from the same cattle as all our beef products — 100% grass-fed and grass-finished. No grain, corn, or soy is ever used at any stage.
The hanger steak has prominent muscle fibers that run at an angle. Slicing against the grain shortens those fibers, making each bite tender. Slicing with the grain leaves long fibers intact and results in a chewy, tough texture — even if the steak was cooked perfectly.
Yes. Our cattle are raised without added hormones, steroids, or antibiotics at any point. This is a core standard across every product we sell.
Each steak is individually vacuum-sealed to preserve freshness and prevent freezer burn. Orders are packed in an insulated box with dry ice and shipped frozen nationwide. Your order will arrive ready for the freezer.
When kept frozen in its vacuum-sealed packaging, the hanger steak maintains peak quality for up to 12 months. For best flavor, consume within 6–9 months.
Yes. Standard shipping is free on all orders over $159. Bundle your hanger steak with a seasoning or another cut to hit the threshold easily.
