A New Steak Cut??

[Clark]

My main online meat source sent an email claiming a new steak cut called Bavette. They don't say hardly anything about it other than tender and tasty. They are priced at 4 12oz steaks for $76.

I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who has eaten or cooked a Bavette and how you liked it.

I love flank steak. The French call it bavette.

[shify]

I know bavette as flap steak, not flank. I like both but find flap to be one of the better values out there not to mention a great steak regardless of price.

[Attjack]

Yeah, it looks like they are adjacent to one another though. Apparently, Wikipedia needs to be corrected as did I.

[Mosca]

Isn’t that the same as a flank steak?

They are priced at 4 12oz steaks for $76.

That's $19/steak - not even $19/lb.

That works out to... uh.... $25/lb --- which, based on some quick googling, seems a bit high. Even for the fancier named Bavette cut

Porter Road has sold Bavette for a few years now: https://porterroad.com/products/bave...e980f0d3&_ss=r

It is also known as flap steak or sirloin flap.

I really like bavette. It has a great flavor and texture. Works great for stuff like carne asada and the like and is also great for just grilling and eating.

I don't think it is the same as "Flank" it is also called "Flap" can be cut into steak tips. Not new but one of our favorites.

I buy flap meat, I mean Bavette steaks, all the time. Always find it in the manager special discount section.

I buy bavette/sirloin flap frequently. Good stuff.
