The beef top blade steak (also known as the chicken steak) comes from the chuck section of a steer or heifer.
Description

The steaks are cross-cut from the top blade subprimal, the infraspinatus.[1] The same muscle cut with the grain gives flat iron steaks, which do not have the connective tissue (fascia) that runs down the middle of the blade steak.
