What kind of beef is used in gyudon?

It’s typically made with ribeye or chuck that’s been shaved extra thin on a meat slicer. You’ll be able to find good meat for gyudon in Japanese supermarkets, but if you don’t have access to that, any beef intended for Philly cheesesteaks will work (even the frozen stuff!).
