Loin

Meat

Loin

Camel loin yields premium steaks and roasts along the back—balanced tenderness and flavour when correctly aged and trimmed. Cut chops or roast whole; rest before carving. Because the meat is often leaner than well-marbled beef, avoid overcooking steaks and prefer marinades, quick high heat, or moist methods for tougher joints.
