  1. Flat iron and flank steaks are the only cuts i know about that can be cooked past well done and still be perfectly tender and juicy af, we have alot of it here in CT but we dont have much of the fancier cuts of beef like other areas, like even tri tip i have to order online, not sure why. All cows have the tri tip ya? Dont know what theyre doing with them but most people up here never heard of it lol. Any time i make fajitas its flat iron or flank, very similar and i can stir fry it all up cut it into thin strips on my blackstone and its almost impossible to dry those steaks out, they are actually better well done than med rare which is how id cook all other steaks

  2. As for the skillets, the only differences between the ci and carbon steel is the weight and finish on them, they are both iron. The lighter weight is a welcomed feature for sure, the ci takes longer to heat up but also holds heat more steady and much longer, the cs heats up quicker and has more temp fluctuations and cools quicker, just need to learn the pan you use, both types are great i have both, seasoning is easier to achieve on new pans with the cs vs the ci but id say once you achieve it, both are too similar to compare when it comes to maintaining it. Idk i use both types at the same time often i think it comes down to personal preference. Both sear the same as well. Both will cook the same quality steaks or whatever it may be. All that being said i am probly going to buy that big one you were talking about. Gunna check them out now. Good video

  3. Not better than a brisket by a long way. That connective tissue between the 2 muscles looks nasty. I cut meat for 26 years and that connective tissue is rubbery and tough to cut into. No way I`m eating it no matter how long it is cooked. Now….. those flat iron steaks looked awesome. Thats how they should be cut and cooked.

  4. Great cook Jeremy! L&L would be proud. I smoked a top blade on my channel a few months back and I found that it’s a cut that definitely benefits from a foil boat wrap. Hopefully you can try that method one day. It’s delicious nonetheless! 🤙🏻

  5. Fantastic review! As always! I’m on it. Top blade it is. Made In carbon steel. A MUST! Great video! You are the man! Thanks brother ❤️❤️👍👍😍😍🙏🏻🙏🏻. Blessings and love to you and yours and congratulations on the coming of another lil BBQ champion! 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️

  6. I'll probably be banned from the YouTube comments sections for saying this, but I think brisket is way overrated. And I can't figure out the allure of the thousands of brisket trimming videos out there It's like watching paint dry. I like brisket when it's cooked well, but when it's not cooked well (most restaurants I've been to) it's meh. Cooking a whole brisket is too much for my wife and me. I know there are a lot of ways to use leftover brisket, but still that's a lot of meat. This cut looks like a better way to go.

  7. This cut is often called "London Broil" even though that is a method of cooking and not the name of a cut. Marinate, smoke to medium rare, and slice thin against the grain. Only downside of this method is ideally you should get rid of the collagen seam as it doesn't render at that temp. I usually just cook it whole and tell my guests to eat around the seam, but butchers usually slice in two when selling as "London Broil" for this reason. In my country it's called "Shoulder roast", and it's much more expensive than brisket.
