I personally am not a fan of sirloin, so I would slice it thin lengthwise, pound it, salt/pepper and sear it on both sides in sizzling hot pan. Serve it in sandwiches. Or slice it thinly and marinate in a bulgogi marinade and grill it quickly.

I do not like ruining good meat with other flavors. I would salt and pepper it, crank up the heat in a cast iron pan, sear the heck out of both sides. Rest it a few minutes, and finish off with some herb and garlic butter.

I think I'm just going to do that, if family wants additional condiments than they can add them later.

I am truely my dad's daughter, he always said the best flavored steak was top sirloin and you know what? I feel about the same. As for sirloin and not top sirloin, I do find it a little tough unless it is marinated for quite awhile. Of course you would know, you know about everything there is to know about meat.

I prefer all steaks seared in a pan with butter, then briefly finished in the oven. Usually no topping or flavoring, but occasionally a pat of herbed butter or crumbles of gorgonzola or sauteed mushrooms.

I'm more likely to go ribeye than sirloin, though.

since you brought this up


top sirloin as you know is different than sirloin strip

top sirloin comes from the top butt (sirloin) and is a large diameter steak, that can be cut many different ways ..

however it does have a distinct velvety flavor,,,particularly the cap/coulotte steak

I know terminology is different in different parts of the country,,,but the smaller steak sirloin about the size if a rib eye is called a sirloin strip and this is a top sirloin below

I don't know it all but I do train meat managers and butchers everyday

and I put on meat training seminars for hundreds of store managers and owners

that's why I take such exception to the folks coming on here and dumping on meat

I'm thankful we had a friend who was a butcher and taught us how to prepare our own hogs back in WV. A lot of good knowledge passed on.

I'm thankful now that my neighbor has a custom meat cutting shop. When I'm confronted with a difficult cut (to me) he's right there giving me advice.

You guys rock.

Not a fan of sirloin. Anything labeled "sirloin" when we get our cow every year is sliced for jerky.
