We have a new cut of beef in the store called Bavette.

Bavette steak, also known as flap steak or sirloin flap, is a thin, flat, and tender cut of beef that comes from the bottom sirloin area. It's characterized by its loose texture and rich, beefy flavor. It is very similar to flank steak, often used interchangeably. Bavette is excellent for grilling or stir-frying. Perfect for your next taco night or steak dinner!

Here's a nice description of the cut and how to cook it from Forager Chef.
Alan Bergo of Forager Chef writes that it is an underused but classic beef cut served in French-style bistros. In French, the name means bib steak. It has a rich, beefy flavor comparable to hanger steak.
