Our local Kroger stores have just stated carrying this "new" cut of steak, it is called a Flat Iron steak. Never heard of it, so in googling it, it seems that this is a rather new cut of meat from the shoulder and getting some good reviews. Suppose to be a tender, flavorful, steak. You might want to keep an eye out for it in your local stores and give it a try, if you haven't already.
 
Flat Iron steak is a blade steak with the hard center gristle removed,it is second in tenderness to prime rib hence making it a very nice cut to cook.The problem is many restaurants buy this cut,so it can be some what hard to find.Try it you will like it and its usually sold at a reasonable price.

Almost as bad as Flat, chest and woman![/quote:3ds4xr0i]

That cut is not well known. Some meat counters cut them across the gristle line which products a slice of meat (1" thick) the size of a fillet, with a nasty piece of gristle running down the middle. Some call this a butter-fly steak. If the gristle is cut out it looks like a meat finger (more difficult to cook right). If the whole piece is cut along the gristle, them you get a nice 3/4" steak called flat iron. It is very tender and much cheaper than more chewy-er stuff. If you see it when looking for steak, by all means grab it.
