5 Underrated Beef Cuts Under $10/lb

Meat right now is so expensive. Wait, wait, wait. Did that package just say $36 for two ribe eyes? As beef prices keep going up and up and up, we really need to take a long look in the mirror and look about how much we're going to pay for dinner. We need to choose different cuts, better cuts, cheaper cuts. Today, I'm going to show you five of my favorite budget cuts that are under $10 per pound. And the best part about it is they are available at your local Costco. Let's start with number one, pana. The pan is a great budget cut of steak that has been made popular by those Brazilian steakous. And this guy, I love that guy. Pana is a triangular muscle that is found in the sirloin. It's actually also called the top sirloin cap. On the cow, tenderness and flavor really kind of go against each other. Picture it like a teeter totter on the playground. On one end, you have tenderness. On the other end, you have flavor. So, if we have more flavor, we have less tenderness. And if we have more tenderness, we have less flavor. It really is a spectrum when you're talking about the difference between flavor and tenderness. It really is hard to have both of those, but the pana does. Like I said, as long as you don't cook it over medium, you're good to go. And it is tender and flavorful and delicious. And the best part, you get to cook it on a sword. No, no, no. Stop, stop, stop. That is a whole strip loin. There is no way that that is $10 a pound. You said this was going to be the cheap meat episode. What happened? All this not real. Not real. Shut it down. Shut it down. Not real. He's got one thing right. This is a whole strip loin, but it is $9.99 a pound. So, it just came in one penny under our $10 a pound benchmark. There is a catch. You're going to have to cut it yourself. Now, you can either save money or save time, but you rarely can save both. I'm going to show you real quickly how easy it is to cut this thing into New York strip steaks and save a bunch of money. Here we go. And who was that and how do they get in my kitchen? I'm going to go find out. A little disclaimer, these are prices in my area at my local Costco today when I bought all this stuff. I will show you the But you can find this stuff. Just go look around. Thanks to Dose for sponsoring this video. This year, like a lot of people, I am taking my cholesterol more seriously. As a dad in my 40s, I don't want to ignore this anymore.

Link in the description. You know how to do it. Let's go. So, for number three, coming in at $9.99 a pound, we're talking flat iron steaks. Now, flat iron is a rectangular piece of meat that comes out of the chuck and it is so flavorful and delicious and is pretty tender. A lot of times it gets confused with a flank steak cuz they kind of have a similar looking shape. If you look closer and compare the flat iron to the flank steak, you can see the flat iron doesn't have as thick a muscle fibers while the flank steak does have really thick muscle fibers. What that's going to do is make it a tougher cut of meat. So, you have to really be careful of not overcooking it and how to cut it. The flat iron steak is much better and much easier to work with because you don't have to worry about all that all that rigma roll to make it tender. It does great by marinating it and throwing it on the grill. It is so so delicious. All right, number four, we have sirloin steaks. So, these are more specifically top sirloin steaks. So they come from that same subprimal cut that the pana comes from the top sirloin. Go figure. And they make a great steak on a budget. They have good flavor. If you don't overcook it, it's they're pretty tender. So it's a good alternative for some of your higher price steaks. My favorite way to cook them, just season them and sear them in a nice hot cast iron skillet, finish in the oven and slice and enjoy. That's the best way. And the best part, they come in at that was that whole thing was upside down. Was that upside down for everyone else? Yes. Sorry. They come in at $9.99 a pound at my local Costco. So, boom. Good alternative under 10 bucks. You can't beat it. We saved the least expensive beef cut for last. Here we go. Number five, beef shanks. So, beef shanks are the lower leg portion of the cow. So you can imagine how much work this muscle gets walking around all day. So it is super super tough. But what are we going to do? We are going to braze it. The best way to make a tough cut of meat tender is to use the brazing technique. It is one of my favorite ways to cook. Brazing turns a tough cut of meat into something that's that's shreddable, that's unuous, that's delicious. That's so many words, but it makes it so so good. And better yet, it creates its own sauce in the process. Oh, this is so good. I'm going to take you through this recipe real quick. And if you want the entire detailed recipe, it is in my cookbook, Primal Cuts, which which the link is in the description or it's on Amazon. So, go check it out for the actual recipe. But, I'm going to run you through the process real quick. This smells amazing. And I can cut this with a fork. So good.
