There's two on every roast. Kind of inevitable unless I suppose you could cover the ends with foil. Having worked at a couple fine dining establishments while in high school and college, I know there’s more demand for them than supply. It’s well done (not burnt) and a different flavor and texture than the rare center cut. I’m sure it’s not healthy, but we’re talking a giant clod of red meat, so vegans need not apply.

It came with a small salad that he finished. He thought he’d be taking half home but when dinner was finished, his plate was empty.
