Anybody ever had a flat iron steak?

Whorst, I've not had it, but I've seen it prepared on the Food Network shows. And as you say, its all in the prep.

Man, your right, but it's not that tough to do. A little mesquite, minced garlic, maybe some seasoning for a couple hours. Cook it mid rare. It's like Buddah! Just to say this, anyone who cooks steak well, well, done cause they are scared of it are lost. It's all about the flavor. How can anyone enjoy meat that's dry. It really boggles me for real. I know a lot of people who really sweat that. Meat is at it's best when it's cooked mid rare to mid, maybe mid well, pending on the thickness of the meat.

Whorstman, I just did a quick search at www.foodtv.com and got several recipes listed. You may want to take a look.

even medium is too done for me...i want to chase it around the plate!!

i have a good recipe somewhere-- i know it calls for allspice as well as some other seasonings....

when in doubt, worcestershire sauce, pepper, chopped garlic, pepper and some fresh rosemary and onion. let it sit all day, throw on the grill...mmmmmmm

aka 'top blade.' marinated, it's very tasty. almost as tender as a ribeye but still a hearty taste like a sirloin.
