Dinner Tonight

The two long muscles along the spine are teh tenderloins.

What the ones on the inside are is actually an inside skirt steak.

Tenderloins are located on the spine and that is how you get a porterhouse on a beef.

There is a strip steak on one side and a ribeye on the other.

The ribeye consists of an inner and outer flap seperated by a bit of fat and connective tissue(on a beef)


The inner part is what is Filet Mignon, the ends are either made into chateu briand or left as tenderloin tips.

the inside skirts are really tender as they are not used much.

Also think of it this way, they are shaped incorrectly if they were tenderloin they are elongated and somewhat cyndrical.

I hope that clears up the issue

But don't take my word for it, look up a chart showing the various cuts of beef and where they come from.

I always had wondered what it was that everyone on TV that were calling backstraps.
