The adjective "catholic," according to the Free Online Dictionary, means "of broad or liberal scope; comprehensive." So, in some cases, a "catholic steak" might refer to an ample or robust steak. There are no cuts of beef which are called catholic steaks.
However, it's more likely that the phrase comes from military or other institutional mess halls, which commonly served fish on Fridays. Here is a quote from Marking Time, a book by Harry Foxley, giving an account of his military service in Australia and Great Britain:
The limited menus came around in swift and steady rotation for those who lacked calendars and Friday was always the signal for fish - otherwise known as a 'Catholic steak'.
