Hereford Entrecôte Steak Dry-Aged Sandwich with honey marinade

Hereford cattle are from the county of Herefordshire in England, where they’ve been bred since the early 17th century. Originally, a working breed the Hereford is now bred for it’s meat because of its undemanding attitude, its adaptabtability and climate tolerance. They are the most widespread beef cattle in the world and can also be found in Germany.

The steaks are excellent from this breed and its always best, if possible, to dry age the meat on the bone. Beef and honey, in a sandwich, is a perfect combination and is an ideal BBQ dish for summer. Do not compromise on the bread when the meat is of such high quality. Buy freshly prepared artisan rolls for this awesome recipe!
