Round Steak

Round steak is a lean cut of beef taken from the rear leg of the cow, specifically from the round primal. It is typically sold as a whole steak or in smaller portions, and is known for being less tender compared to other cuts like ribeye or tenderloin. Due to its leanness, round steak can benefit from slow cooking methods like braising or stewing to enhance its tenderness and flavor. It can also be grilled or pan-fried if marinated or cooked with care to prevent dryness.
