Why Flank Steak?
Flank steak is a lean, flavorful cut of beef that’s perfect for grilling or pan-searing. It’s a great option for those who enjoy a meaty flavor without the heaviness of fattier cuts like ribeye. However, because flank steak is lean, it requires proper cooking and slicing to achieve maximum tenderness. Cooking it quickly at high heat and slicing it thinly against the grain ensures that each bite is melt-in-your-mouth delicious.
