Team cooked steak for example (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

meat

'steak for example' is the definition.
(I know that steak is a type of primal cut)

'team cooked' is the wordplay.
'cooked' indicates an anagram (letters cooked into a new form).
'team' with letters rearranged gives 'MEAT'.

(Other definitions for meat that I've seen before include "17 [ESSENCE]" , "grub, say" , "Edible flesh" , "The flesh of animals as food" , "Food for carnivores" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
