Find answers to our customers' most commonly asked questions.

Is flank steak the same as skirt steak?

The flank steak and skirt steak are two different cuts of beef and will cook differently based on variations in shape and texture. Flank steaks are typically more widely available than skirt and come from the flank primal located near the cow's hind legs. Skirt steaks are found in the plate primal and are closer to the forelegs of the animal. Both steaks are fantastic cuts, packed with flavor, but the skirt is slightly more marbled.

How to cook a flank steak

Direct grilling is a great method to cook a steak like the flank steak that is typically thinner than 1.5”. Turn on grill to medium heat. Season grill with a light coat of vegetable oil. Season steaks with salt and pepper or your favorite rub. Place steak on hot grill, close lid and allow to cook for 2 minutes. Lift steak off the grill, turn 45 degrees and place back on the grill. Allow to cook 2 more minutes. Turn steak over and cook for 2 minutes. Lift steak off the grill, turn 45 degrees and place back on the grill. Allow to cook for 2 more minutes. For medium rare, the total cook time is 8 minutes. Check the temperature of the thickest part of the steak to determine when it is done to your preference. Remove steaks from the skillet and cover loosely with aluminum foil. Let stand 5 minutes. The steaks continue to cook and the temperature will rise about 5°F. Finish with a pinch of flaked salt. Serve. Learn how to cook any steak perfectly.
