Piedmontese Beef Thor's Hammer

The Piedmontese Beef Thor’s Hammer is a show-stopping cut made from the beef shank, frenched to reveal 3–4 inches of bone for dramatic presentation. When braised or smoked low and slow, the meat becomes fork-tender, releasing deep, rich flavor while the exposed bone delivers unforgettable visual appeal. Naturally lean yet tender thanks to heritage Piedmontese genetics, this cut is perfect for feeding a crowd at special events. Raised by the Lambert Family at Triple Creek Ranches on thousands of acres of pristine Smoky Hills grassland in northern Smith County, Kansas, it brings heritage, flavor, and spectacle together. Available through the Territory Trading Co. collective.
