Top sirloin, just above the bottom sirloin
Top sirloin is a cut of meat from the loin of a steer or heifer. Top sirloin steaks differ from sirloin steaks in that the bone and the tenderloin have been removed. Some American butchers call a thick top sirloin steak a chateaubriand, although the French reserve that term for a much better cut from the tenderloin.
