    A shittier cut on the cow. Either part of the round or maybe a flat iron. Marbling isnt good at all, looks suuuuper lean aka less flavor. But any good cook can make it taste good so hell yeah. It just not a great cut

    Looks like Flank steak they can be very flavorful. Especially if you marinated it to help break down the fibers & cut against the grain for more tenderness. I grill just grilled some on Sunday.

    Looks like flank, flat iron, or part of the round to me. I really can’t tell. Looks hella lean and tough so I’m surprised you liked it. That’s good that you do. Enjoy what you like to

    How do you not know what cut you bought? Just curious.

    Flat iron steak, and I’m suprised by the people here shitting on it, for the price it’s a decently lean, flavorful cut that with a little prep work and good cooking punches well above its price tag, I’ve made falt irons that beat my own ribeye before.

    It can be tough and silver skin exists, ymmv but dry brine and cook hot and fast and you’re golden

    Looks like flank to me. I usually use this cut for tacos

    Looks like a flank steak, possibly a flat iron steak. I puts these right on the coals and top it with some chimichurri sauce. Pretty good

    The people here saying it’s flank…. Flank is extremely flat. And grainy. And spacey.

    This is what looks like the end pieces of a royal round roast.

    Lots of people saying flank and shitting on it, but to me this looks like a lean sirloin cap, which is delicious. Some places cut this and sell it as rump tips.

    That would make some great jerky. Nice lean cut.

    Looks to me like sirloin cap ( picahna) or sirloin flap meat. Only based on the grain of the meat after you cut it. I know you said it taste good. Was it tender?

    Should have put that thang in a crockpot with some black eye peas 😈

    Flank steak. Takes a marinade well. Sear both sides and slice across the grain like you did.

  15. Flank for sure … give it a good marinade for a few hours, cook it to a nice medium rare and enjoy

    I’m going to throw an odd one out here but it looks like the trimmed cap off the top round. Not a cut you see often but the fibers are large.
    Could be flank, from the way it tapers is
    Possible.

    I don’t think it’s flat iron.

    No! Totally different parts of the animal. Flank is from the abdominal area and flat iron is taken from the inside of the shoulder muscle.

    This is a Sirloin cap with the fat cap removed. If it still had the fat cap it would be a picanha. There are usually a handful of these packaged together with a box of regular Sirloin primals. Some places cut them into steaks, some sell whole like this. Underrated cut and great for jerky if you can find at a decent price.
