Apparently, In a couple of weeks or so, A contact of my Son in law , will be offering Sirloin joints at an advantageous price.

Now , while I am happy at spotting a decent Sirloin steak, my experience of sirloin joints in minimal.

So, firstly, what should a be paying (roughly) per kilo of said sirloin joint, and secondly , what should I be looking out for, to perhaps help judge quality?

I'm told the meat will have been hung for 2 to three weeks, Thats all the info I have at present concerning provenance.

TIA

Just as an update, I picked up 2 small joints from him a few days back, both were just under a kilo, and worked out at a smidgin under £17 a kilo, came from a local herd. I'd have had more, (they look superb) but he was very restricted on what he could get.

Seems from what was said, I got a pretty good price.

A result biggrin
