Grilled Top Sirloin Filets with Italian Salsa Verde…. this protein is all about the flavor. The bursts of lemon garlic in this sauce on top of grilled top sirloin is outrageously good and enhances the flavor of the beef. Thanks to the Florida Beef Council for sponsoring this post.
I have to admit, if it’s not pot roast in the slow cooker or ground beef for the stovetop or grill, I don’t have too much knowledge on how to cook beef. But thankfully I don’t have to have all the answers and be an expert in the cuts of beef to be able to cook awesome steak filets.
The Beef Checkoff has done all the dirty work for me with their Interactive Butcher Counter, which explores every cut of beef and the best prep and cooking methods for each type. And you’ll find lots of delicious recipes (and cooking videos) on their website like these Grilled Top Sirloin Filets with Italian Salsa Verde featured here.
Since May is Florida Beef Month, I’ve partnered with the Florida Beef Council to bring you this beefy recipe. When shopping for beef, go lean by looking for “loin” or “round” in the name. There are so many choices when it comes to lean beef, and if you need a reference, check out this chart to see how the lean cuts compare.
