Looks great. I've never seen a flat iron steak in a store here. I have seen them offered at local restaurants. If I understand correctly, it's a beef chuck, top blade steak, cut to remove the gristle. This week's local HyVee ad has "Blue Ribbon Beef, boneless chuck tender fillet" advertised at $5.99. The ad states "Great NEW cut of beef". Advertising hype I understand. HyVee can not create a "new" cut of beef. Cattle have been cattle, with the same bone and muscle structure for a long time. $5.99 for beef chuck sounds completely ridiculous to me. T bone is $7.99. Never the less, I'll be getting some "Blue Ribbon Beef, boneless chuck tender fillet" Friday. May be a new adventure. Worse thing that can happen is that I get to eat my mistakes. What a hobby!
