"According to data released by Texas Roadhouse in 2021, its number one selling entree is the 6 ounce USDA Choice sirloin steak. Sirloin steak is a cut of beef from the rear back of the cow, or the area above the loin. It is lean, flavorful, and has a lower fat content than other cuts."
"According to Chef Aleman, "Fine dining guests expect the eating experience of a steak to be the most tender, juicy and flavorful, which comes from the premium, middle cuts of meat." These cuts include filet mignon, which comes from the tenderloin; New York strip, which comes from the striploin; and ribeye, which comes from the outer side of the ribs. Because sirloin is a thin cut, it's harder to cook an unbelievably juicy sirloin steak."
Texas Roadhouse's top-selling entree in 2021 was the 6-ounce USDA Choice sirloin steak. Sirloin comes from the rear back of the cow above the loin, and is leaner, flavorful, and lower in fat than many other cuts. Sirloin is thinner and chewier than premium cuts, making it harder to achieve the tender, juicy mouthfeel expected in fine dining. Premium middle cuts such as filet mignon, New York strip, and ribeye offer greater tenderness and marbling. Because sirloin dries and toughens if overcooked, upscale steakhouses rarely feature it despite its affordability and flavor.
