Chefs and butchers discovered the teres major many years ago, but it’s a tender and delicious cut to add to your steak shopping list. Each teres major is shaped like a small beef tenderloin and can be cooked or grilled whole, then sliced across the grain into round medallions.
This naturally tender cut requires a skilled butcher to extract it from the shoulder muscles, so it is not commonly found in grocery meat cases. The teres major is tender with a lot of beef flavor. It’s delicious with just salt and pepper, but this steak works well with your favorite seasonings and sauces.
Average weight: 1.5 lbs. Each package contains 2 steaks.
Thaw under refrigeration, pat dry, and season generously before cooking. Sear over high heat, then finish gently until the center reaches your preferred temperature.
Rest steaks for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. For thicker cuts, use a thermometer and pull from heat a few degrees early so carryover cooking finishes the job.
Snake River Farms American Wagyu is selected for rich marbling, tenderness, and a deep beef flavor. Gold Grade offers the highest marbling level, while Black Grade balances richness with a familiar steakhouse profile.
Each cut is wet-aged and hand-trimmed to highlight the eating quality of the beef.

The loin primal supplies some of the most desirable steaks and is located below the backbone, between the rib and round sections. The sirloin is the portion toward the rear of the loin and is the source of SRF Wagyu™ top sirloin steaks and the picanha (coulotte). The front portion of the loin is known as the short loin and is home to the SRF Wagyu™ New York strip, Porterhouse, T-bone and filet mignon steaks.
