Meat
Fillet
Fillet of Yak is a boneless tender strip for quick high heat. Mild and lean—season carefully. Cook yak fillet to temperature when thickness varies, rest before carving, and add fat or sauce if lean. Grilling, stewing, and dried meat show the cut’s strengths. Match heat to collagen—fast sear for tender muscle, long moist heat for hard-working joints.
