These steaks are on for $3.88CDN. I'm thinking of stocking up on them and making stews, braises. I've rarely used this cut. What would happen if they are grilled? How much of a chew would they have?

They can be tough but they have good flavor.

I buy them in "family packs", vacuum seal them individually, and then sous vide them. I then chill and freeze them so that I can have a nice little steak when I want one. Just thaw it in the fridge and throw it into a screaming hot cast iron skillet to sear and you've got a nice dinner.

You can sous vide and finish on the bbq grill too. The sous vide makes a huge difference.

I used to buy these before I became a fan and a user of sous vide and you never knew if they would be sorta tender or really tough.

That sounds tasty. However, I'm not set up for doing sous vide.

Good way to do it. I've never yet tried grilling this cut as it has a rep of being tough when done that way.

Marinated with fresh pineapple and other flavors; garlic, soy sauce,
ginger, etc. Fresh pineapple is a natural tenderizer. I add the
pineapple skins to the marinade amd then toss the skins in the trash
after a day in the fridge... then cook by any method. Can't eat the
skins but why waste them. Sirloin tip steaks can also be run through
a cubing machine.

OK. That sounds a plan for grilling after marinade. I've also heard that papaya is a good tenderizer.

Cornstarch in the marinade is a good tenderizer.
You can also just cut them against the grain (on a slant) after
cooking.

You can find the ****** brand sous vide wand on eBay for a really good peice. You use it in your big soup pot and your set to go.

Papaya tenderizes too but use caution, it's potent and will digest
meats. You can buy papasin, a meat tenderising powder made from
papaya.. But I prefer using fresh pineapple, it adds good flavor. You
can buy meat tenderizing powder made from pineapple too (bromelin) but
it adds no pineapple flavor... pineapple plants are bromeliads. Canned
pineapple juice is processed so that it won't tenderise.

I have had a sous vide for many years. Not the wands though. I have one
similar (but not quite as fancy) to this:

I would never buy a wand but I have often wondered how well they work?

I bought the brand ******. Mostly because it is manually set and not wifi or bluetooth as those seem to develop problems. I love it. Works like a champ. It circulates great and gets the job done with no muss and no fuss.
..There is no way I could afford what you have .

I can't remember how much it cost, but as I said, I have had it for
years. I don't seem to remember it being so expensive but I suppose it was
different then.

Oh and mine doesn't have any wi fi or bluetooth settings either)

Can one do this without tools? Maybe just thermometer?
