The tray comes out of the oven and the canoe cut bone marrow is bubbling, golden at the edges and soft as butter in the middle. A spoon, a slice of warm toasted bread, a pinch of salt and some parsley. It is the starter that steakhouses charge a fortune for, and it takes twenty minutes at home.
Our canoe cut is the center of the Balady Kandouz leg bone, split lengthwise so the whole length of marrow lies open. We trim off the two ends of the bone, so what you pay for is the prime center section, where the marrow is thickest and creamiest.
Why the Center Cut Costs More
Every leg bone has two knobbly ends with little marrow inside. For the canoe cut our butchers remove both ends and keep only the long center section, then split it open from end to end. You lose the waste, keep the best part, and get marrow that roasts evenly along the whole bone.
How to Cook Canoe Cut Bone Marrow
Lay the bones marrow side up on a tray, season with coarse salt and black pepper, and roast at 220°C for 15 to 20 minutes, until the marrow is soft, golden and just starting to bubble. Over charcoal, place them bone side down on a medium fire for about 15 minutes. Serve straight away with toasted baladi bread or baguette, chopped parsley, lemon and a little garlic, or spoon the marrow over a grilled steak. You can also simmer the canoes for a rich broth for fatta, molokhia and soups.
Why Farm House Canoe Cut Marrow
It comes from Balady calves naturally raised on our own farm for about 400 days, with zero hormones and zero chemicals. Every pack is cut fresh by our butchers and packed with no bare hand contact.
Put it next to the steaks on your next grill night and watch it disappear before the steaks are even sliced.
Make it a steakhouse night with a rib eye steak or a tomahawk steak. Cooking broth instead? Our bone marrow rings cost less and are made for the pot.
Canoe Cut Bone Marrow FAQ
What is the difference between canoe cut and marrow rings?
The canoe cut is the center of the bone only, split lengthwise with the ends removed, so the marrow is fully open. Roast it, grill it or simmer it. The rings are cross cut from the bone and are the more affordable choice for broth and soups.
Is the bone marrow fresh or frozen?
Fresh, never frozen, cut by our butchers.
