Versatile steaks with incredible tenderness and flavor!
These are extremely versatile steaks! I use them cut up in an award winning all-meat chili recipe. Like their taste and texture in that dish better than the recipe’s called for sirloin. And, if I want a seasoned and seared pan fried steak, I would put them up against any rib eye out there. Incredibly tender and flavorful. -Michelle R.

They're awesome!
A little senewy, but other than that, they're awesome! I wish they were cut so that the senew was along one side for easier removal, but I guess it's not possible. -Eunice M.

Pleasantly surprised!
I never ordered flat iron steaks before and did not know what to expect. I seared them and then put them in my convection oven for 25 min.
Then I ate one of the most tender, delicious steaks I've ever eaten. Now I have three more to look forward to.
These will definitely be an item I reorder.

Tough gristle throughout
The flavor was good but that's where it ended. There was gristle, or tendons as someone else stated, throughout the meat, you couldn't cut through it first of all, and then to pick it up to bite around the gristle was impossible because it was like tearing leather!! I've had flat iron steak from the local store and was melt in my mouth tender, this not so much, would not recommend!!! Disappointed especially at this price!

pretty good
now that I've gone through all the meat, I can say it's decent. The good parts are definitely great, unfortunately, like a few other reviews have mentioned, there is definitely a decent portion of the steaks that have quite a bit of gristle and need to be cut out and discarded. despite this, I'd still say, the majority of the meat you receive is quite tender and delicious.

Disappointing Steak!!
I am really disappointed with this particular cut of meat. The piece of gristle in the middle is practically impossible to cut through. Although the meat on either side of this thick seam of gristle is tender, it is a horrible steak because it is so difficult to cut through it. I will never buy these steaks again. Too much waste.
On another note, I have bought from US Wellness many times and have been very satisfied with everything I have bought. Our very favorites are the petite rib eyes and the filet mignons. I will continue to buy from them - just not this particular steak.

Grandmas best
I was introduced to this cut of beef as a child. My grandmother would sear them and then "pot" them. Basically cooking them like pot roast. They are melt in your mouth tender, served with mashed potatoes and green beans in sour cream (another German dish). This method guarantees a delicious meal. Sorry for the people who don't know how to cook the cut.

Tasty but tough
I ordered these steaks and they had a very thick piece of tendon through them, which was impossible to cut. The meet was good but very difficult to eat.
USWM- We appreciate your honest feedback and are very sorry for your disappointment. We always stand behind our products. A full refund has been issued to you for the disappointing Beef Flat Iron Steaks. This value cut works best with marinades, tenderizing and gentle cooking. Again, we apologize for your disappointing experience. Please feel free to reach out to us at any time if we may be of assistance.

Tasty and tender.
Seasoned with salt, pepper, granulated garlic and cooked to medium rare. The steaks melted in our mouths. I was pleasantly surprised considering what I had heard about grass fed beef being tougher. Will buy again.

Great Flavor, Great Price
I've been ordering these monthly for nearly three years, they're full of flavor and reasonably priced.
As far as the tenderness, they can be on the chewy side since it comes from the chuck/shoulder, which is a tougher section of beef. These also have an unusual cut in that they're sliced halfway down the center where the sinew has been removed.
I agree that these steaks are best cooked over fairly high heat and served medium rare.

Sous-vide
This is actually my favorite steak from US Wellness. I have recently been using an immersion sous-vide cooker with great success. The steaks are vacuum sealed in a cooking grade plastic bag and cooked for a long period of time at a low temperature in a water bath. I then remove the steaks when I am ready and quickly sear and serve. Tender and delicious and a good amount of meat for the price! Whoever gave these 1 star did not cook them properly.

horrible
this is my first time ordering from this company. the first thing we made from the order are these flat iron steaks. one of the worst steaks ive ever had. full of gristle and tough as shoe leather. i had to laugh when i read the description that said something about how tender they were. i am completely pissed off right now. the flat iron steaks i buy at my local grocers are 10 times better and half the price. highly disappointed.
