Rump steak
Rump steak is a cut of beef. The rump is the division between the leg and the chine cut right through the aitch bone. It may refer to:
- A steak from the top half of an American-cut round steak primal
- A British- or Australian-cut steak from the rump primal, largely equivalent to the American sirloin
American and British equivalencies
The British and Commonwealth English "rump steak" is commonly called "sirloin" in American English or Canadian English. On the other hand, British "sirloin" is called short loin or "porterhouse" by North Americans.[1]

French usage
Rump steak corresponds roughly to the French cut culotte (literally 'britches').
The pointe de culotte, the rump cap is highly recommended for braising as bœuf à la mode.
