I’m gonna cook a few I picked up from Publix. Gonna do a reverse sear. I usually only do real fillets so I will report back. Don’t think I’ve over salted these. I wash it off before cooking. They just set and soak.

I cooked some Thursday night and they had a really good flavor but they had a little connective tissue that you had to eat around

I’m going to cook them just like a real fillet. I’ll report back. Will be interesting to see what happens.

Completely coating in salt and letting sit for a few hours will help tenderize them.

Yep. Coarse salt works even better.

Well it was $7 for 3 nice ones. After eating it I would pay $20 next time for the same steaks. So they are good.

They don't always have them but they are a favorite of mine. It compares to a filet the way a chuck eye compares to a ribeye.

I've noticed that the price of these has been steadily going up lately. First ones were around $4, then $6 and the ones that I saw Saturday were $7. The meat market is playing the game of pricing according to demand.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Holy cow that is a ton of salt. You use a whole tub lol. Surprised you can even eat the sucker. The finished product does look tasty. Will have to try this.


Only accurate rifles are interesting.

You wash it off before you cook it. It tenderizes the meat.

I remember being able to get flank steaks for like 7 bucks. Then it became a pretty popular cut of meat and went to $18.

I bought a pack of 3 and cooked them like a normal steak. Seared over 600 deg grill to med rare. They weren't fit to eat. Maybe I just got a bad cut.

Same here.

I put mine in heavy salt for an hour and 20 minutes to tenderize, then washed the salt away. Sprinkle lightly with pepper. Put on a roasting rack above a cookie sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 250 degrees for 21-22 minutes. Take immediately to a medium hot cast iron skillet with a pat of butter or my favorite, ghee butter. Sear 1.5 minutes, rotate 90 degrees on same side continue searing for 1.5 minutes (3 mins total). Then repeat the sear on the other side (3 minutes total). Pull out of cast iron. Let rest for 5 minutes. If not good this way, something is wrong with the meat. I’ve cooked 3 times this way with the same results. It tastes similar to fillet, although not as good. It can’t at a quarter of the price, but it can fool people who don’t eat fillet all the time. Like I said before I would pay 3 times what it costs, but who ever is telling Publix that, please quit.

They've got a little connective tissue in them sometime but I can deal with that for what they cost
