Venison.
Don't have it often, but it is good meat - lean and tasty. Excellent alternative to beef.

Porterhouse. If you've ever seen a porterhouse steak next to a T-bone, you may have thought they were the same. ...

I grew up on game meat. Venison is good, elk is better IMO.

Surprised so many lamb votes
A lot of posters from the UK and Ireland, common to have lamb as a favorite meat here.

People also ask:

Why you shouldn't eat lamb?

Like cows, pigs, and chickens, lambs are raised in filthy factory farms, subjected to cruel mutilations, and horrifically slaughtered. ... But this cruel and painful mutilation is performed without anesthetics and often leads to infection, chronic pain, and rectal prolapse.

Some bad news there for lamb lovers.

NY Strip is the big muscle on a T bone, tenderloin is the small muscle. In the UK a Striploin is called a sirloin. The big end cuts are called porterhouse. In the US porterhouse are the cuts off the big end of a shortloin, the others are T bones. What Americans call a sirloin is called a rump in the UK.
We call the point end of a bottom round a rump, or the rump end of a whole round. We say bottom round or outside round, they call it silverside.
They also break beef differently. Americans break the Chuck from the rib at the 5th rib, the rib from the loin between the 12th and 13th rib
The US shortloin has 1 rib, UK has 3.

The best steak I ever had was Kudu.
Went to a restaurant in South Africa that had this on the menu. Amazing.

Turkey’s not meat?

I would have chosen beef because I suppose that’s actually my favorite but eating too much of that is bad for your health.
wrong. for a women eating lots of beef helps with the iron levels in the body.

The tenderloin is tender, but doesn't have the flavor of a ribeye, tbone etc. That's why I wrap them in bacon.
Tenderloins, hanging tenders, inside and outside skirts, flank steak and flap meat (bavette) (as you know EB } all comes from inside the body cavity. Tenderloin sits next to the kidney. I've picked up on it taste wise on that area in steaks.
That being said, glad to see you again EB


I went with beef.
lamb just don't beat aged beef.

I know all the cuts. I was a beef boner in 4 or 5 different plants.
T-bone is easy work for boning out a quarter.
