What are Tenderloin Tips?
You probably expect it, but tenderloin tips are indeed cut from the tenderloin. Usually, tenderloin tips are cut from the tip of the tenderloin, the part that remains after cutting the tournedos and chateaubriands. That part of the tenderloin is perfect for tenderloin tips. The only reason that tournedos or chateaubriands are not cut from this part is that the shape is not suitable for tournedos. After all, no one wants an uneven steak. For tenderloin tips, that doesn't matter. The steak tips are slightly smaller. Tenderloin steak tips are the highest quality steak tips you can have. They are super fine-grained, buttery soft, and tender in structure. Ideal for making tenderloin teriyaki or a tenderloin tip salad! And especially with a breed like Aberdeen Angus, Black Angus, or Wagyu, you're definitely good..
Why the Name Tenderloin Tips?
Tenderloin tips are called tenderloin tips because they are cut tips from the tenderloin. Tenderloin tips are also sometimes called sirloin steak tips. Sirloin steak is another name for tenderloin. Another reason for the name is that tenderloin tips are always cut from the tenderloin tip. This tip is too small to cut nice steaks, so they are cut into cubes or tips.
