Thian Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 From chaeng wattana to Impact Muang thong thani in that street is a real butchershop. Just before a bridge, you can see their advertising. They don't speak a word english though but have all cuts of beef. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 (edited) There is a hotel supplier with a retail outlet selling premium cuts of beef and other meats in Phra Khanong on Sukhumvit 71 between Pridi (soi) 35 & 37 called "GLORIOUS FOOD". If you are driving, they have a parking lot next to the building. Closed Sundays Not cheap, but excellent hotel quality meats. www.foodglorious-food.com/ Edited September 14, 2015 by dddave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangebrew Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Villa Super market has USDA choice cuts and will cut to order but going to cost I would suggest avoiding Aussie beef has an grassy after taste. Bought a half inch T bone cost about 400 baht was very tasty. They also have kobe beef too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLCrab Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Whatever rib-eye you might buy in Thailand, if you whack it with one of these it can become be a pretty good or at least acceptable replacement for a US steak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boyce Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Get one of these from Big C, around 100 Baht and give the steak a good bashing to tenderise it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the first restaurants to sue a newspaper restaurant critic for slander was a Boston steak house chain that the critic had implied "needled" their sirloins..

Strangebrew Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 But the simple way to produce good tasting and tender steaks is feed corn and molasses to the steer for 3 months before slaughtering it to get proper marbeling in the meat.

manarak Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I'd like to try a needled steak, where can I get one? I like my steak rare, it will be interesting to see how needling makes it better or worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapout Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 the tenderizer now used is electric powered and you run the round steak thru 2 or 3 times depending on reqirement to make (so called tender) The ribeye portion of proper fed and aged beef as well as other tender cuts would not need this treatment nor would the consumer i would imigane, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard_smith237 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) Thai-French butchery behind Villa Suk Soi 33/1. The Thai-French beef is quite reasonable in Taste, Texture and Price. That said: I went to the Thai French Butchers behind Villa on Suk Soi 33/1 (at about 1pm) they had no Rib-Eye in stock. I was hoping to purchase a 2" thick Rib-Eye for BBQ'ing - which when cooked slowly (in foil) and finished off on a higher direct heat is excellent (when sliced across) - At Approx 1000 baht for a 1.6 kg chunk of meat its decent value. I've also tried the Australian Wagyu Tomahawk Steak (on the bone) from Gourmet Market, cooked the same way. At 2500 baht my expectations were not met. I now find myself sticking to Thai-French simply for the Quality vs Value. Arno's is also now very popular (its a butchers and Restaurant). I've not yet tried it, but see on Facebook that many of my Thai friends are going crazy for the place ! https://www.facebook.com/arnobutcher I'll probably give it a try for some Beef when I next need some.

Patrick Yeah i buy from there already, but they taste funny. Just can't fully enjoy one. The ground beef there however is on point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
