I hadn't had a steak for months. At Shoprite I found a package of two club steaks. The steaks looked well marbled and they were on sale. Turns out what I thought was marbling was connective tissue. It's bad enough to be eaten but I pity the poor creature's years behind the plow.*
I'm sure I've had worse meat but I can't remember when.
*technically I think in front of the plow.
