What steak cut is this?

[Zackhq]

Somone got this in my house. I know it’s blue rare or rare. Can you identify exactly the cut and anatomy of the beef?

What’s the best way to season and cook this piece of meat?

They got in your house? You mean someone brought this home
Blue/Blue Rare is a level of a steak is cooked to, that isn't a steak and it doesn't look cooked at all.
I have no clue as to what cut, never seen a cut like that.
There are too many different ways to cut up a piece of meat, some cuts have two or more different names depending on region, ethnicity or marketing ploys.

Maybe a blade steak or an arm. Either way cook it slow.

Hmmm, Don't know what is is, but I'd sooner have that "get in my house" than Rats or Mice.

It's been many years since I butchered but it looks like the piece between the two briskets.

Lots of connective tissue and well marbled. Should be good eats, smoked to 205F.

I think you done gave it away right there.
"What steak cut is this?"

Humm, I'd say Beef. (Because you gave away that clue...):eek:o_O

Looks like it came off the brisket

That was the direction I was leaning. A portion of the sternum maybe. I think cutting the meat from bone and connective tissue, then cutting in cubes for low and slow Burnt Ends would work...JJ

Finally, a forum with clear-cut answers. Somebody stopped by in Shepherd's Bush market and picked up a random piece of meat without specifying the steak. I prefer rib eye.
