Webster Dictionary
Sirloinnoun
a loin of beef, or a part of a loin
Etymology: [A corruption of surloin. Not so called because this cut of beef was once jocosely knighted (dubbed Sir Loin) by an English king, as according to a popular story.]
Chambers 20th Century Dictionary
Sirloin
sėr′loin, n. the loin or upper part of the loin of beef. [Fr. surlonge—sur (—L. super, above) and longe (cf. Loin). The first syllable has been modified by confusion with Eng. sir, and an absurd etymology constructed to suit.]
