Hanger steak

[pierce652]

I'm looking for feedback on this cut of meat. It's so much better tasting than eye of round and seems like a good thing nutrition wise. I buy it in buck when on sale for about $2.00 a lb.

Any thoughts?

$2.00/Lb?

For everybody else that never heard of it.
Sounds good too! But of course its BEEF!
Beef hanger steak is slowly gaining popularity in the United States. Our beef hanger steak hangs between the last rib and the loin. It is grainy in texture and has an intense flavor making it a great tasting steak full of meaty flavor. Our beef is organic too, making this a perfect choice for your dinner table.

I live in Connecticut in the US. I fell in love with this steak when I ate at Michael Symons Roast. I got his dry marinade for it and it is killer. I buy the cryo pack and trim it myself so there is literally no visible fat. It has the consistancy of a flank steak with the intensity of a venison backstrap. Delicious. The french term for the meat is onglet.
