Can also grind tender steaks for excellent burgers (chopped steak)
cooked as rare as you like:

I do the same with center cut pork loins. When the bone-in roasts go
on sale I buy 2-3, slice 2-3 thick chops from each and use the rest as
a roast. A good trick for cooking pork so it doesn't dry is to cook
it not fully thawed... learned this from my Puerto Rican girl friend;
season before freezing, then thaw about halfway before cooking.
