Round steak

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A round steak is a cut from the back of the cow, specifically from the top of the leg, the hind shank and the rump. This is a lean cut, and is moderately tough. Lack of fat and marbling does not allow round steak to tenderize quickly, or of its own components. Commonly cooked through slow moist methods including braising in order to tenderize the meat.
