What Is Club Steak?

The proper meaning of a club steak is a bone-in steak cut of beef from the smaller end of the short loin near the rib. A club steak is smaller than a T-bone or porterhouse steak, and rectangular- shaped (in some areas, it is a triangular cut.)

It is typically a strip loin steak, but that name is kept for the boneless steak that is cut from the start of the short loin area (often named the strip loin), right next to where the prime rib area ended.

However, it has very similar eye section as does the T-bone, but unlike T-bone or porterhouse steaks; it has no part of the tenderloin muscle (often called the fillet) in it. The club steak is likely to be a thinner cut steak than a porterhouse steak.

Club steaks are a tender cut of meat, so they are great for grilling. In tracing the origin, they got their name from country clubs because they used to be sold in such higher-end places.
