On a cow the sirloin tip comes from the backbone to middle stomach. The meat briskets is actually the breast of the cow and one of the larger cuts of meat.
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.)
It is a cut of meat, much like a beef sirloin steak. It comes from above the tenderloin muscle in the alligator's tail.
Sirloin Steak and Chicken Breast.
The fillet, or Fillet Steak.
Filet mignon and top sirloin are two different cuts of meat but both come from the loins. Filet mingon is a tenderloin cut and top sirloin is cut from the top sirloin.
To grill sirloin tips to perfection, start by marinating the meat for at least 30 minutes to enhance flavor. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and sear the sirloin tips for 4-5 minutes on each side. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 145F for medium-rare or 160F for medium. Let the meat rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute. Enjoy your perfectly grilled sirloin tips!
There are several names ... Ground Beef, Ground Round, Ground Sirloin, etc
The tri-tip roast, sometimes called a triangle roast, is the portion of meat that is at the bottom of sirloin.
Sirloin should be a deep red colour. When vacuum packed it will be a deep purple colour. This is due to the lack of oxygen (will return to a red colour when the pack is opened). The meat should not be brown or green.
the is basicly no difference between the 2 in new zealand, where i live, as we have a very high quality of beef and lamb products. but in other countries like America it my be different. The top sirloin steak would just be of a higher quality, so you could use sirloin steak, but there may be a slight difference in the "texture" of the meat. you may need to cook for less time or use more marinade if you are using marinade, ect, to regain some of the juicyness back to the meat.

Sirloin steak can be very good indeed, tender and full of flavour, provided it has been aged correctly. If you can get it from a good butcher it will be a very reliable cut of meat. Personally, though, I prefer rump steak.
