Rump is at the opposite end of the spectrum to fillet. Whilst it not as tender as cuts like fillet, it more than makes up for this in flavour. Cut from the backside of the cow, it’s a muscle that’s used quite a bit during the animal’s life, which means it’s tougher than other ‘prime’ joints.
Cooking Tips
It’s still tender enough to be fried quickly and served rare (if desired). Rump is also a good choice when making kebabs or skewers, as it takes on marinades very well and can hold its own against stronger flavours. It can also be sliced very thinly and used in stir-fries or Asian dishes, which require very fast and hot cooking.
