4th most tender cut on the animal. It’s much more known nowadays. I wish it were less known honestly. Most grocers sell blade steaks instead. At the butcher shop i worked at, we never cut top blade steaks out of them. I think it kind of ruins the best part of that muscle.

Shut up, that’s the way we like it. Are you looking for a price hike or something?

Flat Iron sucks. Worst cut of the animal. Anyone reading this, avoid this cut. Its terrible. Just like chuck, hanger, skirt, and chicken thighs. Dont buy them. Keep the prices down.
Shhhhh OP shhhhh

Preach!

At my store we were forced a few cases of these, already cut and in vacuum bags (idk the exact term). They’ve been sitting out not selling. I have never tried them nor have I ever cooked them. I might need to investigate this cut more personally now. Thank you for this post.
* edit – forced like we didn’t order them they were just sent to us to deal with

We don’t talk about flat irons, if too many people know, the prices go up. I just bought two big ass flat irons for $9

so insane. made my first one in a ski hut this weekend, one of the better steaks i’ve ever had. Don’t get me wrong, i love my ribeyes but in some ways this was better. little less fatty but nowhere near tough or chewy. man i may never go back to another cut

Flat iron underrested.

Yep. Let’s leave it that way so they don’t jack up the prices like they did with brisket and every other cut that gets wildly popular

My favorite cut, hate that the price has tripled since I started buying them years ago. I use to keep about 10 of them in my freezer.

I SOOO agree. I’ve been slicing it thin (on as much of a bias as I can do it), smashing the pieces with the blade of my knife, salting and then flash cooking in a hot wok. Delicious! Also use in stir fry.

It was underrated but now even H‑E‑B it’s at $10 a pound – I miss it
