Money Muscle Question

Post by All Weather Griller »

I ordered a Butt from my butcher and collected it today. I explained to him the Money Muscle and he seemed the think that it was the muscle on the underside of the blade bone. This is in contrast to what other people have said.

The reason I asked was so that I could have it cut leaving it on.

Here are some pictures can anyone advise on where the money muscle is?

I thought it would be the muscle on the bottom left of the picture above.

My Butcher thinks its the muscle on the top left of the above picture. He likened it to being the rib eye of a beef cut, adding that this bit of the cut was the best on the joint.

Yo Adie, it looks to me that the MM is where he is touching with his right hand. I would need to see that side of the cut to know for sure.
