Sirloin

Meat

Sirloin

Buffalo sirloin sits behind the ribs—good flavour with moderate tenderness, versatile as steaks or small roasts. Grill or pan-roast carefully. Slice across the grain. Because the meat is often leaner than well-marbled beef, avoid overcooking steaks and prefer marinades, quick high heat, or moist methods for tougher joints.
