Hey All!

I went to Sam's Club over the weekend, and spotted a "Beef Prime Whole Top Butt Cov" in the meat case? I was wondering can this be cut down to smaller tender parts...perhaps steaks and kabob meat? I bought a "Round Sirloin Tip Roast" from Sam's awhile back to make kabob meat, and it worked out pretty well.

Thanks for your help!

Boy I wish our Sam's had more cuts of meat like yours does. The meat they have is real good, but not a lot of selection.

Good luck and good smoking.

It almost sounds like a clod of beef to me. It could even be another sirloin tip of sorts. I would treat it like a sirloin tip. Can you post a picture of it that would be alot easier to tell what it is.

Top Sirloin Butt:

it's the boneless sirloin steak section of the beef loin - yum!  The last three letters: COV - stand for Cry-O-Vac, the method of packaging it is in.

The full cut boneless sirloin steak from the whole top butt:
