Question: is stew meat the same as sirloin?
Answer: Beef Stewing Cut Closer Look: Bohemian (Bottom Sirloin Flap) It comes from the sirloin, the part of the cow right in front of its hind legs. According to one butchery book I have, it used to be left attached to T-bone steaks (it made the steaks look like they had long, thin tails), but these days it's sold separately.
