Ostrich Meat 101
Due to their unique anatomy and physiology, there are a wider variety of primal muscle cuts on an ostrich than on more traditional animal protein sources, such as beef, pork, or even chicken. Each cut has its own characteristics that influence the nuances of its taste and texture, as well as which cooking method will deliver the best results.

Tips for Cooking OstrichPlease Note: Our ostriches are allowed to develop as nature intended - on their own time, with no artificial growth promoters, steroids, or other funny business. Because each bird is unique in its size & build, and all of our steaks are cut by hand, slight variation will occur.
