New York strip

Prime beef steak

A New York strip is a cut of beef steak from the short loin, prized for its balance of tenderness and beefy flavor.

The meat comes from the longissimus muscle, with a strip of fat along one edge.

It's a steakhouse staple, typically grilled or pan-seared: I'll have the New York strip, medium rare.

Also called strip steak or Kansas City strip.
