Can a flat iron steak be used in a stir fry?
No it is not the same. When a beef is butchered it is hung on a rail in two pieces or halves. Then each half is cut in half so the carcass is in quarters now. You have a forequarter and a hindquarter. The flank steak comes from the hindquarter and the flat iron steak comes from the forequarter.

Is flank steak a better cut of meat than flat iron?
Flank steak comes from the abdominal muscles of the cow. It is a very tough cut of meat, but if cooked correctly will be very tender. It is a great marinating steak and should always be cut thin against the grain before serving. In the early nineteen hundreds it was served (along with lobster) to the inmates on Ellis island. They referred to it as a form of cruel and unusual punishment because it was so tough and flavorless. It became a popular cut of meat after the great depression because it was very cheap and a group of German-Americans discovered a great marinating recipe to make it tender and flavorful. In the late 1990's, the price of flank steak went up, and it became unprofitable because it was no longer a cheap piece of meat. In other words, it cost the same as a porterhouse but was not near as good. Now flank steak is hard to come by. A porterhouse comes from the end of the short loin closest to the top sirloin towards the back end of the cow against the backbone and lower ribs. It is the same as a T-bone steak, but the fillet side must be one and one quarter inch at it's widest point according to the USDA. A lot of meat markets will only classify it as a Porterhouse if it has a third fillet in the middle of the strip side. That third fillet is actually just a piece of the top sirloin. It's also surrounded by gristle and fat. You'd be better off buying a T-bone with a big fillet in my opinion. There are no similarities between the flank steak and porterhouse steak but they are both great cuts if you prepare them the right way. Hope this helps.
