Strip Steak

Strip steak is another particularly tender boneless cut from the short loin although less so than the filet mignon. It can also be found on the thick side of a T-bone or Porterhouse steak. A quality cut will be pretty firm with a good amount of marbling throughout. Also known as a New York strip and Kansas City strip (depending where you are), just remember it's basically the same cut. For best results, all this one needs is a bit of seasoning and a good sear on a hot grill.
