Beef Petite Tender Steak

Beef petite tender is a tender cut of beef that comes from the shoulder or chuck region of the cow, specifically the teres major muscle. Despite being part of the chuck, which is typically known for tougher cuts, the petite tender is surprisingly tender because it is a smaller, underused muscle that doesn't bear much weight. This cut is tender, lean, and very mild in flavor. While it is not as rich or marbled as other cuts like ribeye or strip steak, it is still juicy and flavorful, especially when cooked properly. Its tenderness makes it suitable for various cooking methods, and it holds up well to both seasoning and marinades.
