A CHUCK EYE CONUNDRUM
As you know I was very happy with my First Chuck Eyes. The Second time not so much, a little tough and gristly.
So last night was my Third time grilling Chuck Eyes. I was ready to expect the worst, figured these were going to be like the last ones.
But ---------- These were probably better than the first ones. My wife and I looked at each other and she said " Are you sure these are Chuck Eyes" ?
They did have some gristle which we saw and cut out, Great flavor and almost too tender.
We have one more package in the freezer, so I'll see how those turn out. My main complaint is besides the gristle, is the falling apart. I had already decided to write these off and stick to my Rib Eyes. If the last package is as good as the first and third, I would buy them again if they are only on sale cheap. For the price I paid they were about what I expected. But at Heart I'm a Rib Eye guy.
