I was surprised to find out, though I suppose I shouldn't have been, that the National Cattlemen's Beef Association recently spent $1.5 million on a 5-year study to, in the words of NY Times writer Kim Severson, "dig around in the carcass and find muscles that, when separated and sliced in a certain way, were tender and tasty enough to be sold as a steak or a roast." One example cited is the newly named "Denver steak" that, instead of being ground into hamburger and sold for $2.99 a pound, can be cooked like a steak and sold for $5.99 a pound.

I'd like to know where this guy finds "cheap" skirt steak because around here it's pretty dang expensive!
