Sirloin Tip

Knuckle · Round tip — despite the name, from the Round — from the Round primal.

Confusingly named — the sirloin tip is actually the front of the leg, not the sirloin. The peeled knuckle breaks into several lean sub-muscles that make excellent value steaks, stir-fry, kebabs, and rotisserie roasts.

What It's Called

United States: Sirloin tip, Round tip, Knuckle
Australia: Knuckle, Round
United Kingdom: Thick flank, Knuckle

How to Cook It

Rotisserie: Self-basting rotation suits its leanness.
Stir-fry / thin-cut: Slice thin against the grain, cook fast.
Kebabs: Holds its cube shape well on skewers.

Signature Dishes

Rotisserie beef, Stir-fries, Kebabs, Steak tips, Cheesesteak (shaved)

Whole peeled knuckles are one of the best value plays in the round — high yield for shaved, cubed, and thin-cut programs.
