Slice of meat wrapped by butcher as he recommended (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rasher

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'slice' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'meat wrapped by butcher as he recommended' is the wordplay.
'RASHER' is hidden in amongst the letters.
However, I am not sure how the hidden word is indicated.

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rasher that I've seen before include "Less considered" , "Thin slice of bacon" , "Piece of bacon (6)" , "American fish" , "more hastily done" .)
