The difference between filet mignon and beef tenderloin.
What's the difference between sirloin steak and filet mignon?

1, beef parts are poor. Sirloin steak is the meat above the sirloin, also known as the second half of the tenderloin, filet mignon is the beef inside the tenderloin, commonly known as the small tenderloin, and naked eye steak is also called eye meat, which is the meat in the center of the rib, also known as the first half of the tenderloin.

2. Differences in meat quality. Sirloin steak contains less fat, the meat in the middle is lean, and the main fat is distributed in the outer ring. Because filet steak is deeply hidden in the bones of cattle, it is also the most tender part of cattle. Generally, it looks the least fat, and the meat is particularly soft and tender, while naked-eye steak generally contains more fat, and the oil flowers are evenly distributed, which looks fat and thin.

3, the taste is different. Sirloin steak tastes chewy, and the entrance is thin but not firewood. Because the outer ring is obviously fat fried, the beef flavor is very strong, and the filet mignon tastes creamy and smooth, which is very suitable for the elderly and children. Eye steak is also very soft and tender. Because of its high fat content, it is particularly fragrant and juicy, and its softness is second only to filet mignon.

4. Price difference. Because filet mignon is the meat on the inside of beef bones, the meat yield of whole beef is low, so the price is the most expensive among the three, followed by eye steak with the most evenly distributed fat and thin, which tastes full and juicy, and finally sirloin steak with most lean meat;

5. Nutritional differences. Because the fat content of filet mignon is very little, mainly lean meat, the protein content of filet mignon is extremely high, which is higher than other sirloin steaks and naked eye steaks. Moreover, because the meat quality of filet mignon is particularly soft and tender, it contains more minerals such as blood iron, vitamins, zinc and phosphorus, while the other two kinds are relatively fat, with relatively few nutrients, mostly fat.

Who tastes best, sirloin steak, filet mignon steak or naked eye steak? Who is suitable for eating?

According to the taste, the three have their own advantages, and it is impossible to say who has the best taste, as follows:

1, sirloin steak is suitable for fitness people. Sirloin steak is firm in meat, with a little fat in the outer ring, fragrant and chewy, while fitness people generally don't like to eat too soft food, so it is more suitable for fitness people and rich in nutrition.

2, filet mignon is suitable for the elderly and children. Because filet mignon has the thinnest meat, almost no fat, the highest content of protein, and the taste is particularly soft, which is softer than sirloin steak and naked eye steak, so it is especially suitable for the elderly and children with bad teeth and rich in nutrition;

3. Eye steak is suitable for most people. Because the meat quality of eye meat steak is soft and tender, and the snowflakes are even, there is no pressure for the elderly, adults and children to eat, and because the butter is rich, it tastes particularly fragrant and juicy, which is the best piece of meat to experience steak.
