Rump steak

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Rump steak is a cut of beef from the upper hip of the cow. It's a boneless cut, and it has a rich, deep flavor that makes it a favorite choice for many steak lovers.

Overview[edit | edit source]

The rump steak is located at the cow's rump and the top of the leg. It's a lean cut, meaning it has less fat than other cuts of beef. However, it's also one of the most flavorful cuts, thanks to its location on the cow. The muscles in this area get a lot of exercise, which leads to a higher concentration of flavor in the meat.

Cooking Methods[edit | edit source]

Rump steak can be cooked in a variety of ways. It's often grilled or broiled, but it can also be pan-fried, roasted, or used in stews and casseroles. Because it's a lean cut, it can be tough if overcooked. To ensure a tender result, it's best to cook rump steak to no more than medium-rare and let it rest before serving.

Nutritional Value[edit | edit source]

Rump steak is a good source of protein, vitamin B12, zinc, and iron. It's also low in fat compared to other cuts of beef, making it a healthier choice for those watching their fat intake.
