About this cut
What it is and how to use it
Bavette, also called flap steak, is a thin, loose-grained muscle from the bottom sirloin. It is similar to flank and skirt in texture and soaks up marinades well. It has a deep beef flavor and some marbling. It is usually cooked quickly over high heat and sliced thin against the grain for steak tacos, fajitas, or salads.
Cook’s tipMarinate it, cook it hot to at least 145°F, rest three minutes, and slice thin across the grain.
