What is a New York Strip Steak?

The New York strip is cut from the beef short loin subprimal, which is part of the loin primal. The loin primal is the source of many premier steak cuts – including the most tender of them all – the filet mignon. When the tenderloin is removed from the short loin, the beef strip loin remains. This subprimal is only about 16-18 inches long and will yield 11-14 steaks, depending on thickness.

The New York strip is cut from the beef short loin, sometimes with the bone attached but most often as a boneless steak. If the butcher leaves the strip loin and tenderloin intact through the short loin, the short loin will transform into T-bone and porterhouse steaks.

The New York Strip gets its name from its popularity in the steakhouses of New York City!

Equipment

• Sous Vide Machine – our favorite right now is the Anova or the Joule.
• Container – not necessary, but nice to have for bigger cuts of meat. We recommend the Lipavi as it is large and sturdy. You can also use a pot.
• Vacuum sealer and bags, or a freezer Ziploc bag. If you only have a Ziploc make sure to check our our article on the water displacement method. You can find our favorite vacuum sealers here – 5 Best Sous Vide Vacuum Sealers (Reviews Updated 2021)
