I meant to get top sirloin steaks but brought home Angus top sirloin tip steaks ($6.09/lb). I didn't notice this until I tried to eat the things. To say they were tough is a gross understatement. A person could easily choke on them.
I don't plan to get these again but was wondering if it was the way I cooked them or maybe they aren't designed to grill like top sirloin or rib eye. Normally, I get rib eye but my diet calls for only sirloin when it comes to steak.
They were about an inch thick and slightly over a one pound each. I seared them for about 3 minutes on each side. Grilled direct for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side and removed one at around 150 degrees and the other around 155. I was shooting for med well and well done. I grilled on my OTG and didn't use a pit thermometer but used my thermapen for the meat. It was only the second time I grilled on the OTG. First time was hamburgers and it went well.
Maybe these things needed a long marinate?
