Best beef cut

[HawkerXP]

Tri tip when we can find it.

[barelfly]

I chose ribeye of the choices, feel it’s versatile, as are the other cuts you list.

but, I really like flat iron, flank, skirt, tri tip - and usually cook these over ribeye majority of the time.

and last - it’s beef…it’s what’s for dinner (in my best Sam Elliott impersonation).

[DogFaced PonySoldier]

Couldn't believe no one mentioned flank until post 17. Wow.

[jfmorris]

Flank is my second choice after strip steak.

[Sid P]

I loved flank a few years ago when it was $4/lb. These days it’s more like $10/lb around here, and more at my favorite butcher.

[Polarbear777]

Agreed, price of flank has gotten out of hand.

[Panhead John]

My favorite steak is the one I cooked and am eating at the time.

[ItsAllGoneToTheDogs]

I love a good thick porterhouse, very rarely come across a good one these days, but when I do... I buy it. 2 steaks in one!

[Sid P]

"Ooooh Porterhouse!"

I'm lucky to have Flannery Beef about 50 miles away.

That is the key "finding a good one".

I agree it depends on the day. Right now I have a tri rip happily smoking on the pooper, so that is today's favorite. Last week was chuck ribs, and they were great, so they were my favorite. Next time I do ribeye, it will jump to the top of the list. Haven't done a chuckie in awhile, but when I do, it will be a favorite again.

For me it's gotta be tri-tip and plate ribs. I'll be trying my first picanha sometime next week. High hopes for that one.

[ssandy_561]

I chose Ribeye but a very close second is the Picanha for me. The Ribeye is best overall when evaluating taste, tenderness and texture but the Picanha it tops when it comes to taste in my opinion.

[surfdog]

All of the above.
Depends on my mood and what I’m trying to achieve. I love a good ribeye…but cooked up a couple prime NY strips a couple weeks ago that were outstanding. Cooked up a tri-tip for my parents recently that was also excellent. Don’t generally use either for fajitas on the flattop… So yeah, no clear fave. LOL

[Dadof3Illinois]

I voted for other because for the past several months our go to has been the flat iron

[Old Glory]

I love all steaks. A high quality steak cooked perfectly is my favorite. My top Five:

Tri-Tip
Strip
Bavette/Steak Tips
Porterhouse
Skirt

[Mojo0209]

Tritip for me!

[TripleB]

As Bkhuna stated, the ribeye cap. My next would be the Tri-tip. Surprised nobody picked the Filet Mignon. Easy to grill and big beefy flavor.

[StrikeBBQ]

Plate ribs.

Yes and yes - even great at select quality.

[wrgilb]

Ribeye Cap. This was the cap off of a whole 7 bone primal prime grade rib.
