Understanding Cuts of Beef

Ever wondered what part of a cow your sirloin steak was before becoming a cut of beef? As a small beef producer our selection is affected by how frequently we butcher animals and what is in demand. The following is a list to help you understand a little more about the beef cuts you purchase:

• Round - The rearmost part of the carcass and source of tip steaks, rump roast & round steaks.
• Sirloin - You guessed it, sirloin steaks!
• Short loin - The most tender meat and source of tenderloin steaks, T-bone steaks, and porterhouse steaks.
• Flank - The underbelly of the animal, cut into flank steaks, skirt steaks and steak rolls.
• Short Plate - The underbelly, made into ground beef.
• Rib - Pretty self-explanatory, but cut into rib roasts, rib eye steaks and ribs.
• Brisket & Foreshank - The lower portion of the front legs. Corned & fresh brisket, shank cross cuts and stew beef.
• Chuck - The front shoulder area, cut into pot roast, chuck roast, stew and ground beef.

If you need a visual, the following picture illustrates where these beef cuts are located.
