Culinary Uses
- Holds up exceptionally well to wet, slow-cooking methods like braising and stews without drying out. - Excellent for high-heat roasting or pan-frying to develop a deep, savory crust. - Frequently used in curries, fajitas, and stir-fries where the meat needs to remain juicy in a sauce.
