History Flat Iron The Flat Iron cut, also known as the top blade steak, is a flavorful and tender cut of beef derived from the shoulder area of the cow. It is taken from the top blade roast, a relatively tough cut that is separated along its natural seam to create the flat iron steak. This cut got its name from its resemblance to a vintage flat iron used for pressing clothes.
