Cooking your rump steaks to perfection
Bring the steaks to room temperature (30 minutes to 1 hour out of the fridge) for even cooking.
Pat dry thoroughly and season generously with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat a heavy-based pan over very high heat, add a drizzle of oil, then butter (plus optional garlic, thyme, or rosemary for extra flavour). Add the steaks and sear, turning every 30 seconds to 1 minute with tongs to build a deep, golden-brown crust. As a guide: 3 minutes total for rare, 4-5 minutes for medium, 7-8 minutes for well done (or finish in a hot oven if needed). If there’s a fat cap, hold the steak on its side to render and crisp for 2 minutes. Check our guide to safe cooking temperatures for details.
Rest loosely covered with foil for 5 minutes, this seals in the juices for maximum tenderness and flavour. · Slice against the grain if desired or serve whole to enjoy the full texture.
If frozen, thaw slowly in the fridge first, see our freezing and defrosting guide.
Serve simply seasoned to let the bold, aged flavour shine through, or elevate with garlic herb butter, chimichurri, or a classic peppercorn sauce, pair with hearty sides like chips, salad, or roasted vegetables for a satisfying meal.
