Flat iron steak is the unsung hero of the steak world. It’s incredibly tender and has a deep, beefy flavor that stands up well to bold seasonings. When you grill it, the high heat creates a delicious crust while keeping the inside juicy and flavorful. Plus, that garlicky, herby rub adds layers of savoriness. Every bite is a perfect balance of texture and taste. Steak perfection, guaranteed. 🥩🔥
