If I understand your question, you are asking me which of the above cuts I would prefer....? Well, thats a hard one since Im such a serious canrivore that I love pretty much ALL cuts of beef.... but that said, the Bife de Chorizo is not on my A list... while the Ojo de Bife and the Asado de Tira are two of my all time favorites.

However... if you have the "classic" north-american taste in beef, I suggest you take caution with the Asado de Tira, as its somewhat chewy and not especially tender... this is a difficult cut for most folks, lets say its an acquired taste.

Hope this helps....
