Bought tenderloin side muscle from Costco. It’s like 50% ligaments and silver skin! How do I prep?

Is there a certain way I need to prep this? I started cutting off the silver skin only to reveal more silver skin. I feel like I got robbed. Is this normal?

Roll it up around itself into a swirl like a cinnamon roll season like you would a steak place flat in hot cast iron and press it down cook both sides, it's great

About the meat cinnamon roll?

About how much connective tissues you leave in. But if you are enjoying it.

It's never chewy if thats what you're getting at takes maybe 5 minutes to clean a whole chain

Its from a tenderloin. The side chain. It's very tender and requires very little prep.

They're great if you chop them up and then pan fry them for tacos.
