Where Does Our Beef Sirloin Originate From?

What Part of the Cow is Sirloin?

The sirloin is cut from the back of the cow at the rear, attached via the commonly known ‘T bone’. The sirloin cut, which is often referred to as the strip or striploin, is situated in between the rib, flank, and rump of the cow.

How Do You Make Beef Sirloin Steak Tenders?

There are a few different things you can do at home to achieve a deliciously tender sirloin steak. Adding seasoning helps the tenderness of the steak; sea or kosher salt, black pepper, butter, and parsley all help to draw out the flavouring of the meat.

Using a cast iron pan to cook your steak is also an ideal choice, as it allows the meat to be cooked fast enough thanks to the intense heat. Once cooked, slicing against the grain of the meat also makes tenderising easier.

Does Beef Sirloin Steak Need to be Marinated?

Sirloin steak doesn’t need to be marinated, but it certainly helps to add flavour and make it more tender. This is because the acidity of the marinade breaks down the meat tissue. If you want to give your sirloin steak more flavour during the cooking process, try basting your steak with butter, garlic, and thyme.

How Should You Cook a Sirloin Steak?

Add oil to a pan on high heat. Place the steaks in the pan on their side, with the fat facing down to render. Once the fat has browned, turn them over so they are flat. Cook on both sides until your steak is done to your preference.
