What is Teres Major Steak.

If you’ve never had Teres Major Steak, then you’re in for a treat. It’s a lean and affordable cut of meat with a tender texture and incredible flavor. The Teres Major muscle comes from the beef shoulder or chuck section of the cow. It can be referred to as the poor man’s Filet Mignon because it’s incredibly juicy and fork-tender. It’s extremely versatile and one of our favorite cuts of beef to prepare. Another name for the Teres Major Steak is the Petite Tender. It’s also called the Mock Tender, Bistro Tender, Bistro Filet, and Shoulder Tender.
