New York strip comes from the short loin of the beef, located along the upper middle of the cow’s back between the rib and the sirloin; it’s a muscle that does relatively little work, which yields a firm texture with a fine-grained grain and a well-marbled exterior. The flavor is robust and beef-forward with a pleasant balance of tenderness and chew; it develops a caramelized crust when seared while maintaining juicy, beefy interior notes, making it a favorite for steak lovers who want both flavor and structure.
