The tenderloin of beef tapers at one end. From the main part of the tenderloin, one gets filet mignon, but as the cut tapers down the tenderloin is too small to get nice steaks from (even though it is the same tender, relatively lean cut of beef). Typically this piece is cut into "tips" which are used in stews, stir fries, brochettes or various other applications. Like the filets, the cut takes well to quick, dry heat methods of cooking (grilling, broiling, and sautees).
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!

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.)
