What is a Flat Iron Steak?

The flat iron steak, also known as a chuck steak, is a deliciously tender cut of beef from the shoulder. While the chuck is often used for slow-cooked dishes in the Netherlands, Americans have perfected it as a steak—and rightly so! Once the sinew is removed, the flat iron becomes a serious flavor bomb. Especially when sourced from top-quality beef breeds like Black Angus. Fortunately, this steak is becoming increasingly popular in the Netherlands too. The name 'flat iron' comes from its pointed, iron-like shape and its consistently thin cut of no more than 2 cm thick.

Since this steak comes from the shoulder, which generally works harder, the meat is often considered tougher. However, by expertly splitting the chuck, the flat iron steak emerges as a remarkably tender cut—one of our personal favorites.

Flat Iron on the BBQ

Want to impress with your BBQ skills? The Flat Iron Steak is a fantastic choice. Thanks to its natural marbling, this steak is rich in flavor, and grilling adds a delicious smoky touch. For best results, take the steak out of the fridge at least 30 minutes before grilling and pat it dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper, then grill over high heat until perfectly medium-rare. Using a meat thermometer will help you achieve the perfect doneness—aim for a core temperature of about 55-57°C for juicy, tender results.

Nebraska Prime Flat Iron Steak: top quality from the States

The Nebraska Prime Flat Iron Steak comes from purebred Black Angus cattle that graze on vast pastures in the United States. These animals are fed a plant-based diet, including grass, corn, and grains. This grain diet creates beautiful marbling and that signature rich, buttery flavor. The meat is juicy, flavorful, and melts in your mouth. Nebraska Prime is widely recognized as one of the world's finest beef qualities.

Grain-fed Flat Iron Steak

Grain-fed beef is known for its rich flavor and tender texture. The fat marbling running through the meat melts during cooking, making the steak extra juicy. This marbling gives grain-fed beef its luxurious taste, making it a favorite among steak lovers. The Nebraska Prime Flat Iron Steak is a perfect example of this quality.
