difference between loin and sirloin
Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: Sirloin, is the top half of the loin and has more marbling or fat interspersed throughout the meat. It traditionally is more tender and has more flavor. NY strip or strips are the lower portion of the loin and have little fat in the meat. There is usually though a line of fat/grissle running down it's edge which can be easily cut off. It's only true advantage is for people that are shy of fat. Source(s):
