Sirloin steak

Top sirloin steaks are the most affordable of the high end traditional steakhouse cuts. They have an excellent, full beefy flavor, but are the least tender of the premium steak cuts, with a satisfying “chew”. They’re also relatively lean and un-marbled.

Because the whole top sirloin is a large, solid muscle, these steaks can be cut in different shapes. Perhaps the most common are the filet-style steaks depicted in the photo above – rounded & thick.
