Gaucho Steak Frites

Steak Frites? Or Papas Fritas Provencal as they were know and loved by our founders when they spent a few years living in Buenos Aires!

In this recipe we have used a beautiful quality bavette steak which we salted well with a good quality sea salt. You can then cook over hot coals or in a smoking hot pan turning every so often until core temp reaches 52ºC leave to rest. Then slice your Bavette steak against the grain, brushing with a Garlic Butter Rub mixed with melted butter.
