TENDER, half-price steaks; soy-bean jams; and low-fat potatoes are among several new uses for meats and grains. Not just hamburger Armed with funds from the national beef checkoff, meat scientists from the University of Nebraska and the University ofFlorida tested 39 individual muscle cuts from the chuck and round and found several were as tender as ribeye, New York strip *and tenderloin steaks. Restaurants have marketed these cuts as flat iron, rancher's choice, beef medallion, top blade and ball tip cuts. Now the cuts are finding their way into supermarkets.
