What is Sirloin?

Sirloin steak is a cut of beef that is cut from the sirloin. In American butchery, the sirloin is located at the back of the cow, between the hips and the ribs. However, South African, Australian, and British butchers take sirloin from the middle top instead.

Top Sirloin Butt Cuts

  • Coulotte steak (lean): This steak is easy to prepare on the grill and is savory and juicy.
  • Coulotte roast: It has a lot of marbling and is flavorful and juicy.
  • Top sirloin steak, center cut (lean): This lean cut is perfect for various cooking dishes and methods, and it is cut from the cap off.
  • Top sirloin fillet (lean): Simply rub it with your favorite rub before grilling. This steak is thick and tender.
  • Top sirloin steak (lean): Perfect for kababs, this steak is juicy and versatile.
  • Top sirloin petite roast (lean): Ideal for roasting, this cut is a small version of the bigger top sirloin roast.
  • Top sirloin butt, center cut: External fat and mouse muscle have been removed.

Bottom Sirloin Butt Cuts

  • Sirloin bavette/flap: Perfect fajita meat; it has a hearty texture and is boneless, broiled, or grilled after marinating.
  • Tri-tip steak (lean): Tender and boneless, perfect for the grill.

How To Cook Bacon-Wrapped Sirloin?

First, you must choose a high-quality sirloin steak. It should be of a decent thickness and well-marbled so that you get that juicy, tender result. When choosing bacon, it should be thinly sliced to enable it to wrap around the steak easily without falling off.

Next, season your steak with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. Then you must carefully wrap the bacon around the steak and secure it in place with toothpicks. This helps to hold the bacon in place.

Then place the steaks on a hotplate or grill and cook either side for about 6–10 minutes, depending on your desired meat choice and thickness (rare, well done, or medium rare), allowing the bacon to become crispy.

Once cooked, it is best to let the bacon-wrapped sirloin rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the meat to retain its juices and ensures the best flavor.

Bacon-wrapped sirloin can be served for dinner or as a side dish. It pairs well with salad, roasted vegetables, and mashed potatoes. Let's take a look at some mouthwatering bacon-wrapped sirloin recipes.
