Often hailed as a “hidden gem” among steak cuts, the flat iron boasts an exceptional balance of tenderness and full-bodied flavor. Carved from the chuck primal, it’s known for its generous marbling and surprisingly delicate bite—second only to premium cuts like the filet mignon. This versatile 10 oz portion is perfect for grilling or pan-searing, and is especially delicious with a simple seasoning or a bold marinade. Cook it to medium-rare or medium to highlight its natural juiciness, and savor one of beef’s best-kept secrets.
