Because Tannadice meat products are lower in fat than commercial products, we suggest some cooking techniques to maximize tenderness. Cooking meat slowly at lower temperature can toughen protien causing meat to be hard and dry. Allow us to recommend the most tender cuts coming from muscles that get little excercise. When you are cooking less tender cuts, we recommend marinating the meat.
