New York Cut
It’s the beefiest among the cuts, but like sirloin, its tight grain can be chewy when cooked beyond medium, so cook it rare to medium.

Porterhouse Steak
It’s commonly mistaken for the T-bone steak, but while the same cut, porterhouse has a larger tenderloin than a T-bone. This two-steaks-in-one cut is best cooked rare to medium.

Rib Eye Steak
Also known as the Tomahawk when the long rib bone is exposed, it’s a flavorful fillet that remains tender because of its pockets of fat, so cook from rare until medium-well.

Tenderloin Steak
Also known as the Filet Mignon, the most tender cut is also the most expensive, yet most mild in flavor. It has a characteristic of tenderness that makes it ideal for those who like it well done without the chewiness.
