Questions about Sirloin tip beef steak

What cut of beef is sirloin tip steak?

It comes from the hindquarter, near the top of the leg, rather than from the sirloin. It is relatively lean and can be firm, so slicing it thinly across the grain makes it easier to chew.

How do you cook sirloin tip steak so it stays tender?

Pat it dry, season it, then sear in a very hot pan for about 2–3 minutes per side, depending on thickness. Rest it for 5 minutes and slice thinly across the grain; for a whole steak, cook to at least 63 °C in the centre and rest for 3 minutes.

Can you use sirloin tip steak for stir-fry or fajitas?

Yes. Slice it thinly across the grain, briefly marinate it with oil, lime or vinegar and seasoning, then cook in a very hot pan in small batches so it browns rather than steams. It also works well in steak sandwiches and salads.

How should you store raw sirloin tip steak?

Keep it covered in the coldest part of the fridge and cook it within 3–5 days of purchase. For longer storage, wrap it tightly, freeze it, and thaw it in the fridge before cooking.

Can you use sirloin tip steak instead of top sirloin steak?

Yes, but sirloin tip is leaner and firmer, so it is better sliced thinly or marinated before cooking. Top sirloin has 3.9 g of fat per 100 g, compared with 3.9 g in sirloin tip steak.

How much protein is in sirloin tip steak?

A 100 g portion has 22 g of protein. It is also high in zinc, with 5.3 mg per 100 g.

Is sirloin tip steak a good choice for grilling?

It can be grilled, but its leanness means it is easier to overcook than a fattier steak. Oil the steak lightly, grill over high heat, turn it once, and use a thermometer rather than relying on colour alone.
