Large flat iron today. About 2 1/4 pounds.
Put in  zip loc bag with our favorite teriyaki for about 90 minutes and let rest on the counter. 
Roasted raised direct. Yummmyyy.


Thank you,

    Try making your own teriyaki next time to see if you like it better than bottled. 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 Tbs EVOO, 2 smashed garlic cloves, 1 tsp ground ginger, 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper. It's really good.

    Mighty fine looking steak brother. And for the record and clarification, flat iron is one of my very favorites. Great job :clap:

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    I always thought this cut was a tough cut and had to be marinaded to tenderize it. This is a new cut for me to buy. Just had cooked 2 yesterday that was marinaded for 24 hours. It was great!

    Flat Iron is one of our favorite cuts. Nice bold , beeffy taste. It can have a slight liver taste similar to hanger steak but always very tender and lean. We normally do not marinade and if we do it's only a short time as the grill is coming up to temp. It's not a tough cut like flank or skirt steak. We normally cook hot and fast to medium rare at most but it will handle medium.
    Have a great week...
