  • In this Test Kitchen Tutorial, Chef Gavin shows you how to break down a whole sirloin into smaller pieces. Sometimes the best bang for your beef buck is to buy the larger cut and slice it yourself. Store in the freezer for future dinners.

    Very nice! Last week, I was tasked with breaking down 135 pounds of top sirloins into roasts, seasoning, roasting and slicing them for a wedding reception. Ended up with forty roasts. Because I followed the process outlined here, I was able to slice every roast cross grain, and all of it was moist and perfect, tender, medium rare. I used a utility knife to score the fat cap on the picanha into diamonds, and I tied the picanhas so they cooked more evenly.
    For me, perfectly isolating the sirloin fillet from the two thirds was difficult, even though I could see the seam easily from the top. Thanks for your pointers on this, I will follow your advice on my next sirloin!

    I followed this as a guide last time I bought a top sirloin and I'm so glad I did. I just bought another and will do the same.

    Thanks for the detailed explanations! Just broke one down with these instructions and these are by far the cleanest steaks I've ever produced. :)

    I have a prime uncut sirloin dry aging currently, this info is what I was looking for when it is time to get it out and cut the portions. I'm thinking I'll follow this exactly for all these different cuts... all should be great after the 45 day dry age.

    They ran out of Top Sirloin stakes at the local so I grabbed a roast. This video is quite helpful in turning it into lots of cuts for steaks, stews and soups. Thanks.

    Thanks for sharing and to give you an idea of the potential savings... I see the whole sirloins go on sale for under $5/lb all the time and usually just grind it all up into hamburger and portion out in 1 lb packages and freeze for future use. However, I purchased (just) a Picanha the other day to try out on my new Argentinian grill but paid $10/lb. Will be going the route you showed us here from now on. Thanks again!

    Been doing this for a couple years now and I love it. I will only buy a t-bone or a Porterhouse from the store otherwise I'm cutting it. Easy to cut Ribeye and NY steaks too and cheaper.

      @jppitch6734 Před 9 měsíci

      I'm a butcher, and Victrinox are my go-to brand.
      I have a Victrinox steak knife which has lasted me for over a decade.
      Scott Rea is a pro butcher here on CZcams who has a great video about butchery equipment for home use.

    Super nice video, thanks! But, as a Brazilian, I must say that cutting the grease from the picanha is a capital sin. ;)

  • @robertmattingly6856
    @robertmattingly6856 Před 2 lety

    I have see the sirlion cap cut down into steaks, both ways, with grain, and across grain, any recommendations?

    • @CertifiedAngusBeefTestKitchen
      @CertifiedAngusBeefTestKitchen  Před 2 lety +2

      Thanks for your question!
      From Gavin: Cut against the grain if planning on using as small steaks. Only reason I see slicing them with the grain is for skewering like Churrasco where it will be portioned and sliced.

    • @nateb2715
      @nateb2715 Před rokem +1

      Your first cut should be WITH the grain, that way when you are eating the steak each bite size cut is AGAINST the grain

    • @chaoticdog85
      @chaoticdog85 Před 9 měsíci

      ​@nateb2715 this is only if he is cooking it low and slow. For steaks it's against the grain

    Where can I find a whole sirlion? I see sam's club has a Top Center cut, but I saw a comment that says it did not include the Picanha.

      Just from the sound of it, it's probably just a steak from the 1/3 section, also known as a "baseball steak."

  • @joedennehy386
    @joedennehy386 Před 10 měsíci

    In New Zealand we call this a rump. And the rump cap is the picanha. You cut off way too much fat on the picanha

  • @arturogonzalez9555
    @arturogonzalez9555 Před 4 měsíci

    Fajitas are the inside skirts section( fajita meaning belt in Spanish). Jack in the box came out with their interpretation of what fajitas mean...strips. there is no such thing as chicken fajitas and cutting up sirloin or any other meat into strips are not fajitas. Fajitas (inside skirts) have a unique taste which made it rave that tore through the country. When you go to the butcher shop or meat market, ask or look for inside skirts. Add season all or your favorite ingredients and throw them on the pit. Once you taste them, you will never order fajitas north of San Antonio, and maybe that's too far nowadays.

    This video is a little bit too fast paced, I think the chuck roll and rib eye video are a lot better at allowing me to visualize where each piece is pulled from and where the seams connect. I'm totally lost watching this video once the top sirloin is removed. The music is distracting as well.

  • @pinkypunky2643

    No butcher would ever break down a sirloin like this. Its a Cook/'Chef thing

      In my meat market, this is how we break down the sirloin. This is the only way we cut the sirloin.

      I was just thinkin that. If I broke it down that far, my manager would look at me like I was crazy. 😂
