Some beef critics say that this cut, Flat Iron Steak, is the second most tender cut after the filet mignon.

Picanha (Pea-con-yah)* **
This Top sirloin (Beef Top Sirloin Cap, Sirloin Cap, Sirloin Culotte) is our signature cut, specially trimmed and prepared to assure final product perfection. The origin of the name "Picanha" comes from a long pole used by "Gauchos" of Rio Grande do Sul to lead the cattle. This "stick" called picana (in Spanish) had a stinger at the tip served to poke the cattle on the lower back. Over time this region of the animal came to be called later picaha and later "Picanha" in Brazil. Picanha is the most popular cut in every household in Brazil! Picanha is lean, with a thin fat cap and mild in flavor; enjoy at any cooking temperature, based on your preference.
