<P> A round steak is a beef steak from the `` round '' , the rear leg of the cow . The round is divided into cuts including the eye ( of ) round , bottom round , and top round , with or without the `` round '' bone ( femur ) , and may include the knuckle ( sirloin tip ) , depending on how the round is separated from the loin . This is a lean cut and it is moderately tough . Lack of fat and marbling makes round dry out when cooked with dry - heat cooking methods like roasting or grilling . Round steak is commonly prepared with slow moist - heat methods including braising , to tenderize the meat and maintain moisture . The cut is often sliced thin , then dried or smoked at low temperature to make jerky . </P>
