round steak

Lean beef portion

Round steak is a cut of beef from the rear leg of the cow, typically lean and less tender than cuts from the loin or rib.

It's often sliced into steaks or used for cube steak, Swiss steak, or ground beef.

The cut benefits from slow cooking methods like braising: She pounded the round steak and simmered it in gravy.
