List of steak dishes

Steak is generally a cut of beef sliced perpendicular to the muscle fibers, or of fish cut perpendicular to the spine.

The more tender cuts from the loin and rib are cooked quickly, using dry heat, and served whole.

Fish steaks can be contrasted with fish fillets, which are cut parallel to either side of the spine and do not include the larger bones.

Fish steaks can be grilled, pan-fried, broiled or baked.

Shoulder steaks are cut from the same primal cut of meat most commonly used for pulled pork, and can be quite tough without long cooking times due to the high amount of collagen in the meat, therefore, pork shoulder steaks are often cooked slower than a typical beef steak, and are often stewed or simmered in barbecue sauce during cooking.
