BAVETTE STEAK

The Gourmet Bon Vivant

First of all, what is bavette steak? Bavette steak is is a long, flat, and triangular cut that comes from the bottom sirloin, and it's wedged just in-between the sirloin and the flank.

What's so great about it? Bavette steak super delicious and tender. It's got a good amount of fat running through it. Some people confuse it for a flank steak, but it is different! (Flank steak is tougher). 

How Do I Cook It? Bavette steak is great for cooking over high heat, either on the grill, or in a cast-iron skillet (and finishing in the oven if you need to). Serve it up with a chimichurri or your favorite sauce!  But let's get into how to cook it in more detail.
