About Hindquarter Beef

Why Hindquarter Cuts Command Premium Prices in Global Markets

The hindquarter contains the most commercially valuable muscles in the beef carcass — the loin, round, and flank — yielding cuts that dominate steakhouse menus and premium retail programmes from New York to Tokyo. Uruguay’s grass-fed system produces hindquarter cuts with a distinctive flavour profile: cleaner, more mineral, with a natural lean-to-fat ratio aligned with health-conscious buyers worldwide.

At Frigorifico Sirsil SA, each muscle group is isolated by skilled butchers to precise buyer specifications. Our cutting floor maintains consistency across every lot — from whole striploin with defined fat cover to peeled tenderloin for fine dining.

Uruguayan hindquarter cuts qualify for the EU Hilton Quota — allowing high-quality chilled Uruguayan beef to enter the European Union at a reduced tariff of 20%, versus the standard rate of over 250%.

Cut Profiles and Market Applications

Striploin (NY Strip)

One of the most globally traded beef muscles. Uruguayan grassfed striploin delivers consistent grain, moderate marbling, and a flavour that performs across all foodservice formats. Available 0–1mm fat cover for Europe and standard trim for the Middle East and Asia.

Tenderloin (Filet Mignon)

Less than 1% of carcass weight, commanding the highest price per kilo. In strong demand from Gulf hotel chains, European fine dining importers, and premium US retail. Available peeled (PSMO) or chain-on to buyer specification.

Rump / Picanha

One of the fastest-growing cuts internationally. Uruguayan picanha — trimmed with a uniform fat cap, vacuum packed — is in strong demand in the UK, Germany, and Southeast Asian markets where premium beef consumption is rising rapidly.

Inside Round (Topside) & Outside Round (Silverside)

Large, lean round muscles forming the backbone of deli meat, roast beef, and retail portion programmes. Supplied in single-muscle vacuum packs with multilingual labelling for all destination markets.
