I bought some "pork steaks" at a grocery store in southern TN many
years ago.

Maybe I didn't cook them properly. They were inedible.

I ended up using them to resole my hunting boots. Glued em on with
Pliobond glue. They worked well for one season, then gave out.

Next year, I broke down and bought a new pair of boots.

I would buy pork steaks again if folks are having more than one
year of service from them.
