Flap Meat......

[pacs life]

one of the best steaks I have had in a while.

When preparing it for the grill, cut it pretty thin (1/2 to 3/4 inch at most) and across the grain. Grill on high heat for a short time. DO NOT OVERCOOK it.

Great flavor, and if not overcooked really tender. I was always a rib eye and chuck eye steak guy, but I will have to include flap steak in my top tier now too.

Here is an article on Flap Steaks.....

Here is also some info on Chuck Eyes. If you have never had one of those, they are very similar to a Rib Eye at half the price. Wegmans carries the best Chuck Eye steaks I have had.

Flap Steaks

Never heard of a Flap steak. Sounds very similar to Flat Iron that I've been buying for last 10 years or so at ridiculously low price. Unfortunately, the cut has been getting popular and it isn't as inexpensive as before. But it is still my favorite cut to use as a home cook.

Flap meat? Sounds like what my girl friend use to serve me in college. Lol!

I just discovered Chuck Eye steaks a couple of weeks ago. I can't tell the difference between Ribeye and Chuck Eye. They are smaller cuts and generally run around $4.99/lb where I shop. Very underrated cut of meat.
