Pin Bone

Meat

Pin Bone

Pin-bone sirloin includes a characteristic pin-shaped bone and a large, flavourful steak—one of the biggest bone-in sirloin presentations. Meat is robust; some areas are more tender than others. Best cooked as a shared or large single portion. Grill carefully for even heat around the bone; rest generously. Carve tableside if desired. Less common today than boneless top sirloin but still a butcher’s classic when available.
