Akaushi Cheek

Description

Akaushi is a breed of cattle that is native to Japan. It is known for producing high-quality beef that is lean and flavorful. The cheek meat of Akaushi cattle is a lesser-known cut of beef that is typically used for braising or slow cooking. It is a flavorful and tender cut of meat that is often used in stews, braises, and other dishes that require long cooking times to break down the collagen and connective tissue.

Akaushi cheek meat can be found at specialty meat markets and may be labeled as “Akaushi beef cheek” or “Japanese beef cheek.” Luckily, you can order it directly from Lazy A Ranch!
