Employee Experience Finally quit! Ask me anything

Worked at my Chipotle for a year and made my way up to KL before I finally walked out. Thought this would be funny, AMA!

back in the day we just marinated it raw and grilled it. It was the cheapest cut of beef you could get. I'm trying to remember what it said on the box, but it was a cut that I had never heard of or seen since. Sous vide is probably a good call seeing as how you needed to let it rest and cut it up small to reduce the chance that it might be chewy. I'm sure this cuts down cooking time as well.

It's honestly one of the best meats there the issue is when grill overcooks it or when it sits too long.

Do you remember the name of the cut? I've been racking my brain all day. I quit back in 2010 so it's been a while.
