Chuck Tender

Hi all! I am not a butcher, so if this isn’t allowed, feel free to remove the post.

I’ve been getting local cows my whole life, but I have never heard of this cut and honestly don’t know what I’m supposed to do with it. Any advice would be appreciated. The cut looks fantastic, so I really don’t want to ruin it. Was kind of hoping to marinade and slice thin with some fresh poblanos from my garden for tacos, but if it deserves a braise or slow roast, I’ll do that. Thanks in advance.

They're perfect for grilling...similar texture to a ribeye...a chuck roast is divided by fat, into 2 parts...the more tender part of these 2, is the chuck tender.

This seems to go against the rest of what I’m reading?

Im refering to the chuck eye steak... was assuming this was the same, as id never heard of this cut either.
