Broiled Sirloin Steak

Yes, all those grilling websites say sirloin isn't that tender, but they're probably talking about bottom sirloin. Top sirloin is almost as good as a ribeye. It's juicy, tender, and flavorful.

Ingredients

  • 1 top sirloin steak (also known as a top butt and center cut sirloin steak)
  • Salt
  • Freshly-ground black pepper
  • Olive oil

Instructions

  1. 1
    Place a rack in the upper third of an oven with a broiler at the top (this will not work with a broiler drawer). Place another right below it. Place a tray of aluminum foil on the lower rack. Preheat the broiler.
  2. 2
    Brush steak on both sides with olive oil. Season both sides liberally with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  3. 3
    Place the steak on the upper rack. Insert a probe thermometer into the thickest part of the steak. Keep the oven door slightly open with a tube of foil and cook until internal temperature reaches 140°F for medium rare, 155°F for medium, and 165°F for toast.
  4. 4
    Remove to a plate and cover with aluminum foil. Let rest 7 minutes before slicing on the bias across the grain. Serve warm.
