Everything about The Sirloin totally explained
The
sirloin steak is
beef steak cut from the lower portion of the ribs, continuing off the
tenderloin from which
filet mignon is cut. Of the steaks typically considered to be premium steaks, the sirloin is the cheapest, because the muscles still do quite a bit of work.
The sirloin is actually divided into several types of steak. The
top sirloin is the most prized of these. The
bottom sirloin is less tender, much larger, and is typically what is offered when one just buys sirloin steaks instead of steaks specifically marked top sirloin. The bottom sirloin in turn connects to the
sirloin tip roast, which is generally considered to be a good, if somewhat tough, roast.
Etymology
According to legend, the name sirloin comes variously from a British monarch, possibly Henry VIII, James I or Elizabeth I who dubbed it "Sir Loin"
(External Link
). While versions of this story are often cited as fact, it's more likely that the word actually comes from the French
surloynge, meaning above the loin.
