It was as if I received all the bits of grizzle that were cut off the main piece of meat and another prep person put them in my box. Completely inedible.

Terrible and disgusting! There was only 10% meat in this dish. The rest was gristle, fat and cartilage. The meat tastes old and disgusting like it sat in a tub with dirty laundry. Yuck.
