Skirt Steak vs Flap Steak - What Are the Differences? [Steaks Review]

[@JohnSuave]

For real, who's complaining about Number A and Number B??? You got issues. That's been my favourite Ninja-ism since SVE 😂🤘

[@SaltyTales]

Tell them John! 😂👊🏻

[@rajeshgowan846]

@@SaltyTales Yes!! tell them John. We love it

[@charliep9066]

There are only two numbers in this world, and they will ALWAYS be A and B! IFYKYK

[@backwaterfarm3039]

I knew to quit watching this about 10 seconds in when he cut that well done meat haha skirt steak is never never ever under any circumstances to be cooked well done I mean neither is any steak but especially these.

[@Username-es1iy]

Most Mexican parents will say any red is undercooked meat lol makes it really difficult for cook outs

[@firstlast_x]

Bloody meat is not traditional is poorer countries because of bacteria. So well done is the common choice.

[@HugoDahl]

Now I know what the difference is - and still don't like that the same piece of meat can have 2, 3 or more names to confuse me! I do think I'll be getting some - whatever the local store calls it, and firing it up! Good stuff Ninja! Also, for number A and number B. It's like people have never heard of Cuban Numerals! Roman numerals: I, II, III, ... V, X, C, etc. Cuban numerals: A, B, 'nother B, C, DEEEEEELICIOUS!

[@SaltyTales]

🤣🤣 love it!

[@RobMocar]

hahahah

[@deepdrop1]

I really enjoyed your video and especially seeing you two appreciate each other's company and the warm energy between you. It makes me miss Florida so much, but it made me feel happy-thank you for that! The chimichurri sauce looks great and I am eager to try it. Next time I cook skirt steak I will definitely try the sauce out.

[@meat_loves_wasabi]

Can do a skirt vs flank vs hanger vs flat iron steak 😆

[@SaltyTales]

Oh yeah and int he store thay have some nice packed hangers for sale! 😂😂😂 Great idea!

[@charliep9066]

This would be a GREAT idea! I always get these 4 confused! And also - the bavette steak - is that just another name for flank? Or flap? So much confusing information out there about these similar flavour/texture cuts. Please set the record straight for all of us, Ninja! I know you'll do the research.

[@grlmgor]

My money on flat iron but Ninja likes skirts and hangers.

[@nickylocks]

In hexadecimal code it's 0 thru 9 and A thru F in a numerical format. So... number A and number B would be accurate in hexadecimal code.

[@SaltyTales]

jajajajajajajaja! 👊🏻......you know your stuff brother!

[@mokouf3]

Converting from hex code to decimal number: A means 10, B means 11

[@shoes121255]

Is there a difference between flap steak and flank steak?

[@ericfregoso2266]

Yeah

[@therealdjkob7433]

Ninjas face when asking ms ninja of what meat she thought it was…… skirt or flap? She like “flank” and his face 🙎🏾‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

[@myAngel2009]

What about the difference between inside and outside skirt steak? Which one are you using for the comparison?

[@danielgooding1498]

I am so happy you posted this video. For years I’ve always wondered what the difference between the two meats was and you answered all my questions. Not to mention you are so charming and inspiring. Also Miss Ninja made this so down to earth and entertaining! I instantly subscribed! Thank you again, Chef!

[@Mac-td7lt]

The chimichurri looked àwesom. My wife is from Argentina and makes chimichurri almost the same but without the red pepper. She also ads vinegar. Delicious.

[@CookingwithKirby]

My 2 favorite cuts for Carne Asada. Delicious!

[@SaltyTales]

Indeed Deeeeeelicious brother!

[@SaltyTales]

Oh yeah man! Fajitas de arrachera! WOW! 😂😂😂 Hungry now!

[@JB__23__]

Another great video!!! I’d like to see a dry age using the umai bags vs traditional in the fridge amigo. I’ve done the experiment but I’d like your take. Thanks

[@SaltyTales]

Thanks JB!! Coming soon 🙌🏻

[@hv_247]

Yesssss!! I needed this video!! 🔥🔥🔥 Curious about the “outside skirt” steak as well is there a difference with outside and regular skirt steak?

[@heythere3780]

Outside is more tender then inside.

[@SmokingDadBBQ]

Letters are numbers 😂. Looks delicious

[@FLATRONNIE666]

I HATE IT WHEN MY MEAT IS A LIL SHOE E

[@alamoconsultingservices]

I have seen meat markets selling more and more the flap steak and, for whatever reason, selling it about 30-50% more expensive than inside skirt steak. They NEVER tell you is the bottom sirloin just sliced in a butterfly cut. That's BS.

[@xmozzazx]

I am so happy you used that grill Brotha! I love that thing! I'm going to have to try more steak cuts like this. I never see anything like it where I get my meat, I'll have to ask and see. NINJA APPROVED!!! KFTM as always!

[@wildernessman760]

Well you said that a flap steak sometimes is sold as skirt steak. So if it's not a true skirt steak and I think it is and I want it more well done then it will be tough. So I guess in order to avoid having a tough piece of meat I can't ever cook it to more than medium rare. Since some butchers are not truthful wow thanks for the tip.

[@yumyum408]

Well I'm eating flap right now. It's sous vide. But even the one time I didn't SV it was still more tender than skirt. Maybe I need to cut skirt differently

[@longhoacaophuc8293]

don't worry about "number", it's just a definition. Mathematicians do it all the time.

[@timebong8366]

Lol at end while y'all talking about a good deal I was imagining Mrs ninja at store couponing it up!😜😂

[@SaltyTales]

🤣🤣🤣👊🏻

[@FOGOcharcoal]

Great info Ninja, I was never too sure!

[@SaltyTales]

it is very confusing but they are also very different! 😀😀

[@senyai9092]

so i followed your recipe exactly, and now i have a bowl full of sauce left over, why did you make us make so much sauce

[@motocrossrebel12]

I love both! Hot hot and fast for skirt, and I actually smoke then reverse sear my flap steak. They are both very similar I can't pick between one or the other haha.

[@Brad-ic4bp]

I haven’t found an application for skirt steak which doesn’t come out better using flank steak. Skirt steak is just too stringy/fatty for me.

[@mokouf3]

No sense of humor required, but some math/computer knowledge required! in hex code, A~F means 10~15! Oh you have number G? Then I don't know!

[@scotthudson8172]

27.99 a pound for choice skirt steak at doris Italian Market. and my man you crazy wearing a long sleeve down here in plantation.

Try some worcestershire sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, pepper, salt, some cilantro and for the kick red pepper flakes! Enjoy my friend 👊🏻

[@timjones8210]

Another great video. Definitely made me hungry.

[@chemprochemicals]

Flap is more tender in my opinion. Skirt is more tuff

[@jomarieortiz9321]

I love Skirt steak! But bought the flat steak so thank you for the tips on how to cook it!

[@starwarsfan-ye9hw]

is it flat or flap steak now? i’m confused

[@jamesbrandon8520]

Now correct me if I’m wrong but I believe it’s the skirt steak that that has an inside skirt and and an outside skirt and most people say the inside is the best, or am I thinking of the flank steak not sure can’t remember but loved the video as always

[@SaltyTales]

Skirt steak has an inside and outside and that video is coming as soon as I can find inside skirt steak! 😂😂😂 Man that is difficult to find!

[@sprocket40]

Well skirt has inside and outside. Flank is fajita meat typically. Flap is bottom sirloin All three fall into alternate steaks that rely on proper cooking and cutting like the top butt cap otherwise known as the queen. All three are pretty overpriced now. The blade out of the chuck is the next area that gets great results. That is sold as blade steak with the crappy sinew left in as cross cuts or as flat iron as the long muscle grouping.

[@sprocket40]

Hanger is the other “butcher” cut that had a vogue period and got incredibly overpriced. All of them are fantastic steaks but fad created a price hike.

[@sprocket40]

I’d also add blade is commonly sold as boneless short ribs in several areas.

[@mafitron]

@@SaltyTales Sams club sells inside flank steak

[@ivse9696]

Again everything explained very well and done well 👍👍👍

[@ucdbnxt7318]

NINJA!!! - I cook it all sous vide and didn't care for flap.. Inside or outside skirt, I go 132/24 and sear as tho I was grilling. Marinated skirt such as Arrachera brand, I go 132/8 and sear as tho I was grilling. Fabulous and tender...

[@josez9452]

A&B are not numbers? What did they teach me in school then? I’m confused 🤔. Both cuts look amazingly DEEEEEEELICIOUS. Ñoooo I’m hungry now. I guess the couple of 👎 must of been from vegans & vegetarians. Ninja & Mrs Ninja I’m pretty sure all of us who gave you a thumbs up would give you more than two 👍 if we had more. Do big toes count ?

Now...I cook. Thank you!!

Mrs Ninja * 50 percent difference, I will take it any day any time ! Me* bet you would 😆

[@xeropunt5749]

I like peanuts not because they’re soft…I like the crunch. I like meat a bit chewy, often, cause then i don’t crave crunchy or chewy things afterwards. Tender & juicy is great, no doubt, but so is chewy & flavorful👍 Sometimes I just crave jerky, lol…

Skirt steak 😋 always

[@cj-sp8ed]

Instead of cutting the flap steak in half, I pound it out before marinating, this makes a huge difference in the tenderness.

[@SL1CK1307]

I was gonna look at more videos but I ran into yours first and I no longer need to watch another video. This one answered all my questions. Good stuff Mr. Ninja

[@mikevelez7484]

Why not put number A in the crushed pineapple for 45 minutes to change the tenderness?

Flap steak is not serloin tip, close to it the tri tip is next to the serloin tip witch is also called the knuckle and there is 2 kinds of skirt steak out side and inside one is next to flap meat and other is next to ribs on shoulder
