One of our cheap, affordable secrets? Cubed steak.
Why used cubed steak?
Regular steak refers to thicker cuts of beef sourced from tender parts of the animal, known for their tenderness, marbling, and flavor. Cubed steak (or sometimes called ‘minute steak’), on the other hand, is thinly sliced beef that has been mechanically tenderized, often sourced from tougher cuts. The tenderization process creates a distinct texture with cubed patterns on the surface.
Regular steak is commonly cooked using high-heat methods to maintain its tenderness, while cubed steak is often used in recipes that involve longer cooking times to achieve tenderness, such as stews and slow-cooked dishes. Regular steak is enjoyed on its own, while cubed steak offers an economical option for flavorful, budget-friendly meals (exactly what we want here!).
