Has anyone ever heard of this cut of beef? It's on sale but I couldn't make any sense of the meat clerk's explanation.
How is it cooked? Like any steak?
-
Never heard of it, but I found this. After reading I am wondering if it is what is called chuck eye steaks around me.

I think this is what was used to make burnt ends on an episode of Diners, Drive Ins and Dives I watched a few nights ago. They said it was a Chuck Clod.

It might be the same as a flat iron steak. i.e. cut from the chuck.

Good info. Thanks.
I downloaded their Meat Cut Application. It looks as though it'll be useful.

That's a reasonable thought without seeing it. It looks more like a piece of beef tenderloin. I'd be tempted to smoke-roast it and serve it with Béarnaise sauce (chateaubriand).

I gave it a Goog and it looks like it's a tender cut of meat similar to a tenderloin but cheaper. Nothing wrong with that.

Flat iron comes out of the clod and is labeled as a poor man's fillet but has become really popular for its tenderness. I am guessing that may be what you have. If so, I would cook it like a regular fillet.

If it’s the same thing that Fareway had on sale here last week, they’re teres major steaks. We bought a couple and I grilled them the other night. I thought they were OK, but not a cut I’m going to seek out regularly. The marbling looked similar to flat irons, but the flavor and the shape of the steak were very different from flat irons I get. They’re kinda oddly tubular like a section of a tenderloin that’s been split into the 3 muscles.

Yep. I saw them at Fareway. Would you buy one again?

I would definitely recommend trying it. I wouldn’t buy them all the time, but I would buy them again very occasionally. They’re fairly tender, but enough chew you’ll realize it by the time you get to the end of a 12oz steak…or the ones I’ve had are less tender than usual.
