Ball Tip

Ball tip is a boneless cut from the top of the hip bone. It’s very lean and less tender than higher quality steaks. However, with some culinary finesse, such as tenderizing via marinade, or slow-cooking, this cut can deliver satisfying entrées and great value. Consider rubs, marinades and sauces (including BBQ sauces) as tenderizing tactics.
