100% Grass Fed & Finished Flank steak is a lean, flavorful, and versatile cut of beef from the cow's abdominal muscles, often known for its bold flavor and chewiness, and is typically cooked whole rather than divided into smaller steaks. Flank steak comes from the cow's lower chest or abdominal muscle, located just behind the plate and in front of the rear quarter. It's a long, flat cut with a significant grain, meaning it has long, prominent muscle fibers.
Flank steak is known for its intense beefy flavor and can be a little tough if not prepared properly, but it's also a fairly lean cut. Flank steak absorbs marinades well, which can help tenderize the meat. It's best cooked quickly over high heat, such as grilling or searing, and sliced thinly against the grain for maximum tenderness. Flank steak can be used in a variety of dishes, including stir-fries, fajitas, stews, and casseroles.
