Beef - Lesser known cuts

[TxBowHntr]

Have any of ya'll tried Teres Major or Denver Steaks? I have my local butcher cutting these for me as I heard they are the cuts the butchers keep for themselves. Wanting to know if any of ya'll have tried them, and any tips for cooking them. Thanks in advance!

I dont know about those but I cut the meat off the shoulder blades on the last red stag and cooked up all three cuts like a regular steak and boy were they good and tender.

Where are they cut from?

Those are called Flat Iron steaks on beef. The very best steak to come off a steer.

Both are from the chuck primal cut in the shoulder.

Yes, this cut (I believe is referred to as “flat iron”) is better than anything on the hindquarters. I’d put it up against the loins.

Flat iron is a good cut. I’ve heard of the Denver cut it’s supposed to be phenomenal.

Eye steaks and roast are pretty decent

Chuck eyes are phenomenal. Petite Sirloins are also awesome. Never heard of a Denver cut.

As they say, always can learn something and today I learned it

I tried my first flat iron steak a few months ago and it’s pretty much my go to now. Can have steak for the 3 of us at the house for less than $15.

I was hoping it wouldn't get out about those chuck eye steaks, I prefer them over rib eye; and way cheaper too.
