About Flank Steak

Flank Steak is offered by Laurel Highlands Farms as part of our Pennsylvania farm-direct beef program. BEEF · per lb

Flank steak is a long, flat muscle from the animal's abdominal wall. It has a pronounced grain running the length of the steak and a deep, beefy flavor, but little internal fat, so it is almost always marinated before cooking. Cook it hot and fast to medium-rare at most, then rest it and slice thin, against the grain, on the diagonal — that step is what keeps flank steak tender rather than chewy. It is the classic cut for fajitas and London broil.

Buying directly from a farm is easier when product identity, price and use are clear. Consider how many people you are feeding, the cooking methods you use most often and how the item will fit into your meal planning. Our shop also includes related cuts, primals and specialty boxes so you can compare options without losing the connection to the farm.

Availability follows the realities of a working livestock farm. Add currently available products to your cart and confirm pickup or other fulfillment details during checkout or by contacting the farm. For more help choosing and cooking cuts, visit our beef and lamb guides.

Good to know

Fresh beef keeps best refrigerated at 40°F or below and is at its peak within a few days of thawing; if you will not cook it right away, freeze it in its original vacuum packaging. Thaw frozen cuts slowly in the refrigerator on a tray — roughly a day for every few pounds — rather than on the counter, and pat the surface dry before searing so it browns instead of steaming.

Pasture-raised beef is leaner than grocery-store beef, so it cooks a little faster than you may expect. Pull steaks and roasts a few degrees below your target temperature and let them rest before slicing; tougher, well-worked cuts reward low heat, moisture and time.
