Flank steak is also packed with a balanced amino acid profile, thanks to its connective tissue. This makes it a great source of essential amino acids, collagen, and other nutrients that support inflammation reduction, gut health, and metabolism.
Unlike many yak products that are crossbred with beef to combine the hardiness of yaks with the faster growth rates of cattle, our yak meat is 100% pure. This ensures a clean, authentic flavor without the gamey taste often found in wild meats. While pure yak is rarer and more expensive due to its slower growth, it delivers a superior taste that elevates any dish.
Raised on nutrient-rich pastures, our 100% grass-fed, free-range, needle-free yaks roam freely in their natural habitat, producing meat that’s tender, clean-tasting, and reminiscent of the wild ruminants our ancestors enjoyed. Whether grilled, sautéed, or slow-cooked, our yak flank steak brings a unique, delicious flavor to every meal.
Best cooking methods for Yak Flank Steak:
1. Grilling: Flank steak is perfect for grilling due to its slightly thicker texture compared to skirt steak. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and cook the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting for desired doneness. Rest the steak before slicing against the grain to preserve its tenderness.
2. Pan Searing: For a quick, flavorful meal, pan-sear your flank steak on high heat for about 2-3 minutes per side to develop a savory crust. Since yak is lean, adding a bit of tallow, ghee, or butter will help maintain moisture and flavor. Finish cooking the steak at a lower temperature or in the oven for your desired doneness.
3. Oven-Baked One-Pan Meal: Flank steak also works well for a simple one-pan meal. Season the steak with herbs and spices, then pair it with vegetables like potatoes or roasted root vegetables. Roast at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the steak reaches your preferred level of doneness. This method locks in flavor and makes cleanup a breeze.
100% Grass-Fed
Our commitment to 100% grass-fed yak means no grains, no feedlots—ever. Our yak graze freely on nutrient-rich pastures, eating the diet nature intended, which supports their metabolic health and aligns with their natural physiology. In contrast, grain-fed cows and yak are confined to feedlots with limited movement, rapidly fattened on high-energy grain diets that produce excessively fatty meat—far removed from the cuts of meat historically consumed from wild ruminants.
Research shows that grain-fed livestock develop elevated glucose metabolites, triglycerides, and oxidative stress markers, while pasture-finished animals maintain superior metabolic function.
By choosing our 100% grass-fed yak, you’re enjoying a cleaner, more nutrient-dense product that mirrors the meat our ancestors thrived on—free from the endocrine-disrupting pesticides and phytoestrogens often found in conventional grain-fed lamb.
Free of Pharmaceuticals and Toxic Agrochemicals
Healthy animals don’t need pharmaceutical interventions. Our yak are raised in optimal conditions—grazing on fresh pasture, breathing clean air, and regularly moved to new grass, ensuring they aren’t living in their own waste or exposed to toxins. This natural lifestyle eliminates the need for routine antibiotics, vaccines (including mRNA vaccines), hormones, and dewormers. In contrast, conventional feedlot livestock are confined to crowded, unsanitary conditions, requiring constant pharmaceutical support to stay healthy.
By prioritizing regenerative farming practices, our farmers raise resilient yak that rarely get sick. Our animals experience minimal parasite exposure, no stress from confinement, and receive optimal nutrition from diverse pastures that supports their immune function and metabolic health. Our needle-free yak offers pure, wholesome meat—just as nature intended—without the pharmaceutical crutches required by industrial agriculture.

Naturally Lean Protein
Due to their adaptation to high-altitude, cold, and resource-limited environments, yaks efficiently use the food they consume, focusing on muscle development rather than fat storage, resulting in meat that is leaner than many other types of red meat, including beef. Ground yak is typically around 95% lean, yet it remains naturally tender and full of flavor. Traditionally a staple for indigenous communities in harsh regions like the Himalayas, yak meat is prized for its mild, slightly sweet taste.
Much of the yak meat on the market is a cross between yak and beef, bred to combine the hardiness and lean qualities of yaks with the size and faster growth rates of cattle. Pure yak is less common and more expensive because it grows more slowly and takes longer to reach maturity. Our yak meat is 100% pure yak, not a cross with beef, ensuring an authentic flavor without the gamey taste often found in wild meats. It offers a clean, natural taste, perfect for adding a lean and flavorful protein source to meals.
