So, Sirloin flap steak is Hangar Steak?
Hmmm...I bought that years ago, regularly, for under $3 a pound...recently
it's gone to $5+.

I bought a hangar steak at a butcher in NYC for a very dear price (i thought
so) and when I cooked it, I thought it tasted just like sirloin flap, from
my supermarket. But I thought "why wouldn't they call it hangar steak?"
Glad to know my hunch was right.
