does anyone know much about this steak??

Not sure if this is what you mean but heres a recipe.

1. Place a large cast iron frying pan on a rack over an open fire.
2. Heat pan to very hot. (add no oils)
3. Cover bottom of pan with coarse ground black pepper.
4. Place steak in pan. (will really smoke)
5. Coat top of steak with coarse ground black pepper.
6. Flip and cook second side.
7. Remove & ENJOY

Best cooked rare to med rare.

Sounds similiar to blackened salmon which is totally delicious. I would have to coat my pan lightly with olive oil or something so I wouldn't be leaving half of my venison stuck to the cast iron.

The flat iron steak is actually a top blade steak derived from the tender top blade roast. The roast is separated into two pieces by cutting horizontally through the center to remove the heavy connective tissue.



It got it's name because it was thought to look like a flat iron








It is quickly becoming a favorite of restruants and their patrons because of the flavor, tenderness and affordiblity.
