Eye Round Steak! Is it 95% lean meat?

[Davi Meireles]

Well, this is a cut from the hindquarters of the ox known in the USA as Eye Round Steak. In Brazil we call this cut of beef PATINHO.

Is there a difference between the nutritional tables depending on the cattle raised?

You have to really trim it close if any fat is on it to get to 5% fat content. It pretty chewy too, so tenderize it and a slow cooker is how we usually prepare it.

Yes, it is an excellent, very tender cut of beef. Around here we make ground beef with it and also grilled fried steaks. My mother always makes it cooked with potatoes and vegetables, it's great.

Around here, have there are butchers inside supermarkets, . Well then, it makes it easier to buy meat without any fat. I always ask the counter attendant to take it any remaining fat

They don't get pissed that you're asking them to do extra work for your cuts? And the fat makes the cuts taste better. If you fully trim it off, you lose a lot of flavor.

LOL, I get pissed if they trim a beef brisket too close. That's pure, flavorful goodness.

Shit, I want them to leave the fat on too. When you have a steak, the grizzle makes the steak.

I don't like the fat on meat.

I'm currently in Ireland on a bus to the airport to fly to Germany to spend six days in a thermal spring, and I was going to eat healthily today, for now you've just inspired me to get a big dirty fry with rashers that are half fat.

American English for rashers = grilled strips of bacon

How expensive is a filet mignon in Brazil?

BTW, the butchers here are just fine with trimming. If you invest in good cooking knives & learn to sharpen them, then trimming at home is no problem as well. Occasionally I’ll buy a pre-packaged NY strip steak & cut away some of the fat.

Usually when I see 'filet mignon' in a sentence with a South American country, I'm clicking a gore link.

The fat is where all the flavor is.
