About this cut
What it is and how to use it
Leg steaks are slices cut across the hind leg, usually with a small round bone in the middle. They are lean, mild, and uncured, so they taste like pork rather than ham. They cook quickly on the grill or in a skillet, and they take a marinade well. Because they are lean, they can dry out if overcooked.
Cook’s tipMarinate or brine, cook to 145°F, and rest three minutes. Don't confuse them with cured ham steaks, which are already cooked.
