Disappointed
I have been purchasing whole picanha from Meat-N-Bone for over a year and have been pleased with those. This was the first time I purchased individual steaks, which i did because sometimes a whole picanha is too much if we don't have guests. I bought 4 of these steaks and three of them looked like steaks I would cut. The fourth (it is pictured in the photo) was not only an end piece but I could tell when frozen that it had been cut on an angle to the grain (not close to with the grain). I ended up cutting this one piece into two pieces and tried to correct the grain situation with a cut cut on a diagonal. It did end up being tender but if someone had just cooked it as it came, I believe they would have been disappointed. If this was the only issue, I would have rated this somewhere between a 3 and a 4. What really led to the 2 stars was the fact that one of the 3 steaks I cooked not only had a gamey taste but it was also sour tasting. Definitely a bad piece of meat. Think I will just stick to buying whole picanha and hope I don't get another bad piece.
Amazing Picanha!
I cooked this today before work and didn’t want to go! I was stuffed. The marbling was fantastic and flavor was on point. Might consider getting a whole one for the holidays!! Will order again!
So juicy
Amazing! The steak was delivered to my door. It was very juicy and full of flavor.
Surprisingly amazing
I had been hearing how picanha was similar in tenderness to a filet but the flavor of a ribeye or NY strip but always assumed it was mostly hype. This is one of those times I was very happy to be wrong. Definitely worth the hype. One of the juiciest, most tender and flavorful steaks I've ever had. Will definitely get again.
Very delicious steak, trimmed a bit too much
My only gripe was that 2 of the 3 steaks I ordered had the fat caps mostly trimmed down. The third one had plenty of fat and rendered beautifully. The steaks themselves were so flavorful, even with only salt and pepper on them. Would definitely recommend this cut.
