Note: Beef Shoulder Top Blade (Flat Iron) Steaks come from the second most tender beef muscle. They are cut from the Top Blade Roast (IMPS/NAMP 114D), which is separated into two pieces by cutting horizontally through the middle to remove the thick connective tissue. Each half resembles a small flank steak. These pieces are then cut crosswise into 2 to 3 individual steaks. They average 7 ounces.
