Looks beefy. Tasty. And tenderloinish. Really nice. Wish that was easier to get here. Could be my favorite

It's a huge secret. But the teres major is big time good and very inexpensive, if you can find it. I've been told it's difficult to properly butcher the cut so typically it's just added for ground beef. Any time I see it at my meat market I buy whatever they have. If you've ever ordered steak medallions at a restaurant you've very likely had this cut. Very much like a tenderloin so restaurants can sell "filet medallions" at tenderloin prices, while only spending sirloin money.
It's interesting because it's the only cut of steak I've ever grilled that actually plumps and gets larger when cooked.

Yeah, I have asked my three butchers about this cut and none have, carry, or cut it. I haven't looked online for it, but may have to ask I really want to try it.It's a huge secret.

Yeah. Love them. I just put them in foil and do a two minute cook. I like ‘em crispy and crunchy!
