Sirloin is one of the most popular steaks. Our USDA Prime steaks are cut from the top sirloin and are full of rich beef flavor and a firm bite. A tasty upgrade to the top sirloins from the grocery store, these are a great value and a wonderful surprise for a weeknight dinner.
Bring home something familiar, but a step up in quality with USDA Prime top sirloin steaks. A surprising lean steak that still packs a flavorful punch. Cut from the top sirloin, which butchers will tell you are a far better steak than those from the bottom sirloin. USDA Prime beef is in the top 4 to 5% of all the beef in the U.S. They will impress with their great flavor, firm bite and good value.
The USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) separates domestic beef into eight grades, based on intramuscular fat or marbling, and other qualities like tenderness, juiciness, and flavor. The two highest grades are Prime and Choice.
USDA Prime is the top grade on the USDA scale and features a moderately abundant amount of marbling. Only 5 to 6% of all U.S. beef grades at this high level.
USDA Choice falls directly below USDA Prime. Choice beef is high quality and has less marbling but offers an excellent value.
COOKING TIPS Top sirloins have less marbling than steaks like ribeyes and New York strips, but have a hearty flavor and a recognizable firm texture. They are best prepared medium rare to medium.
Be sure to completely thaw your steak before cooking.
Internal temperature is the most accurate way to know if your steak is done. Keep a good quality thermometer on hand.
Rest your steak at least 10 minutes before serving to let the internal temperature equalize and allow the juices to be reabsorbed.
Slice steak against the grain – 90° to the direction of the muscle fibers. This makes for a more tender bite.
Finish your steak with a light sprinkle of flaky salt for a nice presentation and an appetizing salty crunch.
The sirloin, part of the loin primal, is located between the short loin and round at the top and back end of the animal. The sirloin contains top and bottom sections. Our sirloin filets are cut from the top sirloin butt, specifically the gluteous medius muscle.
The name sirloin comes from the Middle English surloine, which was derived from the French word surlonge, meaning “above the loin.”
