I didnt do anything to the meat, except i dont
think i cut it the right way, i just forced it when it was tough to
cut. Thanks for all the info though, will try to cut it into smaller
slices and marinade it, sounds good!
Making a stew doesnt sound to bad either, but im a single guy and dont
really make elaborate meals for myslef, this meat was a good brand, so
thats why i bought a 5 kilo chucnk, dont know what cut it is, i threw
away the packing...
Some of the slices are good, so i think maybe i just cut it wrong or
its the outside of the meat thats bad, where most of the fat was....

Id never microwave meat, unless to reheat cooked meat already by the
way....

Thanks again for all the replies!
