People love steak for many reasons, even you, right? Aside from the fact, that it is the most expensive cut of meat that you can buy, people just simply love to sink their teeth in that beautiful slab of beef meat that is equally tender, juicy, and very flavorful that will make you want more.

In general, steaks have different cuts across different muscle fibers and groups of an entire cow and can sometimes include the bone of it. Technically, the cow has three prime areas for steaks, the short loin, the tenderloin, and the ribs as these muscles are the ones that are less moved or mobilized while the cow was still freely grazing at a farm.

This means that these three prime areas have the softest and have the most tender part or meat of a cow, and these areas are not that big which is why the price is technically expensive. These areas known to be not moved more frequently by the cow contains more fat deposit or marbling adding more flavor to it.
