Flank steak is a cut of beef steak taken from the flank, which lies forward of the rear quarter of a cow, behind the plate. Over the narrow sea, they're a little more specific and French butchers call it bavette, which means "bib". bavette is big on flavour and tender enough, as long as you don't overcook them and eat fresh off the griddle or barbecue. Unless you really like it blue, resting for more than a few minutes will toughen things up. I'm not doing much of a sales job here but in France, onglet and bavette are up there with the best. They should be here too!
