Cube steak or cubed steak is a cut of beef, usually top round or top sirloin, tenderized and flattened by pounding with a meat tenderizer.

In Ireland, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and some parts of the United States, cube steak is called a minute steak, because it can be cooked quickly.

Minute steak may also be distinguished by:

• simply referring to the cut, which is not necessarily tenderized;
• thinner than cube steak (hence does not need tenderizing);
• cut from sirloin or round, while cube steak cut is from chuck or round.
