Description
Blade Steak is a steak cut from a muscle in the beef chuck primal cut, specifically the Top Blade Muscle.
Blade steaks are made by cutting directly across the top blade muscle, which is actually pretty tender. Unfortuately, there’s a seam of connective tissue running through the center of it, which means that every section of steak has a piece of this tough gristle right in the middle.
Because of that strip of gristle, blade steak is typically not a good choice for grilling. The only way to break down the tough connective tissue in the middle of a blade steak is to cook it slowly, with moist heat, by braising it.
Typical weight is 1 lb, each steak.
