Flat Iron Steak (pron)

[smokeyw]

I decided to try my hand at flat iron steak on the kamado tonight. I seasoned the steak heavily with kosher salt and pepper and threw it on a 600 degree grate for 3 minutes per side. It had more flavor in a piece of beef than I have had in a long time!

Looks like you Nailed it Sir! I do love the flat irons.

I love flat iron steak. IMO, it is a great replacement cut for London broil. It is full of beefy flavor, and as tender as beef gets.

Nice looking steak. I'm drooling.

I've never cooked one. So, 600 degrees, 3 mins a side? Tender?

I've never cooked one. So, 600 degrees, 3 mins a side? Tender? It's from the same cut of meat as a chuck but different area. !It's tender and juicy. So also is a chuck eye. Tender and juicy. Both great steaks!! chuck eye is from the end of a Ribeye.!:clap2:

[Happy Hapgood]

It has a deep beef flavor too.

[Ag76]

I would call that steak damn near perfect.

[martyleach]

That looks great. Don't see that cut too much around here...

Tasty and versatile cut. Make great beef enchiladas when shredded.

For you guys in Ca. you can go to a local Flying J truck stop and order a flat iron steak. It ain't cooked on a fire pit of course, but sometimes you can get a good one. Has as much flavor as a rib-eye almost, just not as tender. Just my opinion.

I would love to find some locally, but have not seen any at the local supers.

[cowgirl]

Looks danged tasty from here too!

[cookingdude555]

Oh my !!

Flat Iron is one of those under the radar cuts of meat. Fairly inexpensive and great beefy taste.

[DaveMW]

That looks great. Don't see that cut too much around here...


Since you can get tri-tip just about anywhere that sells meat I wouldn't worry about a flat iron. :becky:

[BigBlock]
