Beyond beef chuck.

THE REVOLUTION OF THE FRONT CUT.

The history of the Piedmontese Fassona cattle breed is rich in phases. Used, since the dawn of time, to draw the plough in the fields, it was almost destined for extinction with the advent of agricultural machinery. The link with the region also affects the way it is processed; rural culture follows different paths.

While in the city they seek the “ready dish”, it takes time and people before the traditional whole cut gives way. The new generations learn from the old butchers and study the art, combining it with the new customs and habits of the metropolis.

The new direction began in the early 2000s. A revisionist approach inaugurated the revaluation of the fore cut. “Heathen” cuts went side by side with “sacred” ones. We have been among the leaders of this great change.

Ready use for easy success

The cuts arrive in the kitchen already portioned and ready to use. There’s little further to do and they are already exquisite meals.

On the one hand, small, non-intensive, family-run farms that work to a closed cycle. On the other hand, the integrity of the Cazzamali family. It’s a privilege to sell meat like this over the counter
