Beef Cheeks (Joué de Boeuf)

Beef Cheeks (Joue de Boeuf)
Once a secret of classic French kitchens, beef cheeks have earned their place as a slow-cooking favourite for chefs and home cooks alike. Cut from the hardworking cheek muscle of the cow, this underrated gem is packed with flavour and natural collagen — giving it a melt-in-the-mouth texture when braised low and slow.

Ideal for rich stews, red wine ragù, tacos, or even a modern take on pulled beef, beef cheeks reward patience with depth, silkiness, and restaurant-quality results. They hold seasoning beautifully and pair especially well with bold aromatics like thyme, rosemary, garlic, and star anise.

Our beef cheeks are hand-selected from British cattle, prepared and trimmed for your convenience.

George's Tip: Brown hard, braise gently. Give them 3–4 hours at a low heat and they’ll be fork-tender with a glossy finish.
