Where it comes from
A modern butchery innovation — the denver steak was 'discovered' in 2009 by meat scientists at the University of Nebraska. Extracted from the serratus ventralis muscle in the chuck, it's surprisingly tender and well-marbled for a chuck cut. An affordable alternative to ribeye with similar marbling patterns. It is part of the chuck primal (Serratus ventralis muscle, extracted from under the blade bone).
In menus and butcher shops it is often discussed next to Chuck Roll, Flat Iron, and Ribeye.

Cooking methods

Because this cut sits on the chuck primal (Serratus ventralis muscle, extracted from under the blade bone), adjust time and temperature to thickness and marbling.
