Strip Loin Steak


Whole Strip Loin Steak [New York Strip, Kansas City Strip, Shell Steak, Club Steak]

Cut from the Short Loin, this is like a Crosscut (Porterhouse, T-Bone), but stops at the bone and includes no meat from the tenderloin side. All the names above are for the exact same cut, #1179 (bone in) and #1180 (boneless). The "Club Steak" name is also used for other steaks. #1179A and #1180A are the same thing but "Center-Cut".

Being a loin steak, this cut is quite tender, but not as flavorful as the tougher cuts. The photo specimen was 7-1/2 x 4-1/2 x 1 inches and weighed 14-1/2 ounces.

Note that "Vegas Strip Steak" is not at all related to this cut. It is from the Chuck (shoulder) and was developed for (deceptive) marketing purposes.
