Shaved beef refers to thin slices of cooked beef that have been shaved or sliced off a larger cut of meat. You can use it in a variety of dishes—from sandwiches to stir-fry—and is appreciated for its tender texture and robust flavor. The type of beef used varies, but sirloin and flank steak are two popular choices.
