Where it comes from
Bottom Round Roast: A lean, economical roast from the outer thigh. The classic American pot roast cut — braised low and slow with vegetables. Also used for deli roast beef when oven-roasted and sliced paper-thin. Tougher than inside round but more affordable. (round, Roast from the outside round / bottom round). Inside Round: A large, lean cut from the inner thigh (adductor and semimembranosus muscles). Sold as top round steaks, London broil, or roasts. Lean but can be tough — best sliced thin or braised. (round, Inner thigh of the hindquarter). Top Sirloin: A large, lean cut from the hip section. The top sirloin butt (NAMP 184) is the main muscle group. Versatile — grilled as steaks, roasted whole, or cut into kabobs. Moderate tenderness with good beefy flavor. Not to be confused with sirloin cap (coulotte/picanha) which sits on top of it. (sirloin, Upper hip, above the sirloin cap (coulotte) and behind the short loin).
In menus and butcher shops it is often discussed next to Outside Round, and Top Round Steak.
