Good cuts of red meat??

[JackassRR]

As far as red meat goes, I just eat ground sirlion now. What are some good cuts of steak to eat? Just want some variety.

filet mignon--fairly expensive especially if good quality, beef roast, tri-tip-cheap marinate the hell out of it first. Just some of my favorites.

Sirloin is affordable, London Broil is a lean nice cut for cheap. Round steak is just a tad bit below a London Broil but a good cut as well.

Ground Sirloin, round and chuck are good cuts of ground meat.

Sirloin is good for the BBQ (marinated in olive oil & Worcester). I like eye of round roast - trim off all visible fat, then roast in the oven @ 350 for two hours, turn the oven off and let it sit in there a few more hours to cool down before slicing it. I eat it every day with fat free cheddar cheese slices.

If you're going for cheap go with a skirt steak. Marinate the heck out out it first though and cut ACROSS the grain or you'll burn more cals chewing than taking in.

I like a good ol' london broil 'cept that's actually just a term markets have put on top sirloin. It's the way it's cut that makes it a london broil.

If you're just looking something quick go for what they call a petite sirloin". Hmm....guess what? That's a "london broil" cut into small steak thickness pieces.

i think anything with "top" or "round" in the cut of beef is supposed to be relatively low in fat.

Usually the cheaper the better but it also gets tougher on down the line. My personal favorite is breakfast/flank steak. Cheap as hell and low fat.
