I picked up a 2.69 lb 7 bone roast beef chuck thats just about 2" thick. Never cooked this particular cut before and was just wondering if anybody had any suggestions for the best way they've Egged one before.[p]Thanks,

    Citizen Q,[p]I had no idea what a 7 bone roast was until I went to foodsubs.com[p]This is what they say --
    "7-bone pot roast = 7-bone roast = center cut pot roast = chuck roast center cut Notes: This is a tough cut of meat, so it's usually braised or cooked in liquid to tenderize it. A steak from this roast is called a 7-bone steak. Substitutes: arm roast OR blade pot roast[p]7-bone steak = center chuck steak Notes: This is an economical steak cut from a 7-bone pot roast. It's rather tough, so your best bet is to braise it. If you insist on grilling or broiling it, be sure to marinate it overnight to make it as tender as possible. Substitutes: top blade steak OR under blade steak "[p]
    I love that site!

    Steve-B,
    I kinda had the feeling that I was buying a 2 and half pound oxtail, but what the heck, it only cost 4 bucks. Think I might throw it in a bag with some Soy-Vay Island Teryaki and try out that TRex method Sat or Sun.
    Cool website by the way.[p]Thanks,

    Hey Stump,
    The main reason I actually bought the thing, aside from it only costing 4 dollars, was that I never TRexed anything yet, and I didn't want to ruin a 5 dollar steak.[p] How bout them Patriots, buddy? Are they wicked pissa or what?[p]Cheers man,

    Citizen Q,
    i have trexed a few. only the first one i did was eatible. the rest turned into chili on a later date. low and slow is the way to go, foil and add liguid when it hits about 165-170 and cook past 200 internal for pull. the plataeu stage seams to be lower with beef, down near 140-145
