Beef Top Sirloin

Synonyms: Rump Heart, Top Butt, Top Sirloin Butt, Rost Biff

The Center Cut Top Sirloin (aka Top Butt) is the section of the steer that top sirloin steaks are cut from. It offers great flavor and significant tenderness at a much lower price than other steakhouse cuts like the ribeye roll & striploin.

Top sirloin beef makes excellent roasts or steaks. Top sirloin steaks are the most affordable of the top shelf steak cuts. The whole top sirloin can be cut into “baseball cut” aka “filet” top sirloin steaks, which are shaped like filet mignons, or “strip style” sirloin steaks which are cut long and thin like strip steaks.

These top sirloins are “’center cut” – meaning that they comprise only the best & most consistent portion of the top sirloin.

Applications: Roast Whole or as Portions or Slice into Steaks.
