Cooking Tips for Lean Longhorn Beef:
-
Longhorn beef naturally has a lower insulating fat content so it will cook faster than traditional beef.
-
Less fat means there is less shrinkage when cooking longhorn beef.
-
It is not necessary to add additional fat to cook longhorn beef, as it has just enough not to stick to a grill.
-
To broil, position the meat three to four inches from the heat and watch closely to prevent overcooking.
-
Broiling slightly frozen steaks will keep them juicer.
-
For grilling, a medium-hot fire works best.
-
Add damp mesquite or cherry wood chips to the fire for a nice flavor.
-
Cook longhorn roasts at 275°F.
-
Use a meat thermometer to monitor desired doneness.
-
Ground beef should have an internal temperature of 160°F.
