Cooking methods
Typical methods include high-heat searing or grilling for steaks, resting before slicing, and cutting across the grain when the muscle is fibrous. Because this cut sits on the sirloin primal (Bottom sirloin, triangular muscle at the base of the sirloin near the flank), adjust time and temperature to thickness and marbling.
