I think the fillet of steak is the most tender. Its located just on the backbone
A cut of meat. Mock tender or faux tender
The round cut is located on the cow's hindquarters, usually tender.
Tender meat, so you would be asking for a tender cut. Also minced (ground) meats are 'soft' meats and easily chewable.
A tender and fatty piece of meat cut from the rib of a cow is known as ribeye steak. This cut is prized for its rich marbling and flavor, making it one of the most sought-after steaks for grilling and roasting. The ribeye can be served boneless or bone-in, and its tenderness and juiciness make it a favorite among steak lovers.
When you put a less tender meat through moist heat cooking, the meat becomes tender through this process. The moisture and the heat element combines to penetrate the fibers of the meat and loosen the fibers on a cellular level.
When the meat is cut across the grain, the meat fibers are made shorter, so the meat chews more easily and seems more tender.
The only difference is the location on the animal. On a cow for example, the top sirloin is a slightly higher cut on the beast than the bottom sirloin. The generic term "sirloin" is another sirloin cut that is just above the tenderloin. No one sirloin is better than the other, however, the top sirloin is slightly more tender, as it is located in an area where the muscle is not given any exposure and thus the meat is slightly more tender then, say, the shank (legs). Most people think "top" sirloin means its of better quality, but this is a myth. It all depends on how you cook the meat, and how tender you desire the meat to be. For the most tender cut from the sirloin section, choose the top sirloin. For the most tender cut on the whole animal, choose tenderloin (for obvious reasons.)
The tenderloin is the tenderest cut of beef.
To properly cut steak for even slices and tenderness, use a sharp knife and cut against the grain of the meat. This helps break up the muscle fibers, making the steak more tender.
To cut corned beef for serving, use a sharp knife to slice the meat against the grain into thin slices. This will help make the meat more tender and easier to chew.
Meat that is not tender is often referred to as "tough" meat. This toughness can result from factors such as the age of the animal, the cut of meat, or the amount of connective tissue present. Tough meat typically requires longer cooking times or specific preparation methods, like marinating or slow cooking, to help break down the fibers and improve its texture.
Tenderloins are the best cut as they are the most tender and do not require a lot of seasoning to obtain a nice taste. However, marinating any meat, including tenderloin, will add to its gourmet effect.
