Eye Of Round: A small, tight-grained, very lean oval muscle embedded in the outside round. Uniform shape makes it ideal for roasting and slicing thin (roast beef deli meat). Can be tough if overcooked. (round, Small oval muscle within the outside round). Hind Shank: Cross-cut sections of the rear leg bone with surrounding meat. Extremely tough and collagen-rich — produces deeply flavored broth when braised. Classic osso buco cut. One of the most universal braising cuts worldwide. (shank, Rear leg, below the knee joint).
In menus and butcher shops it is often discussed next to Inside Round, and Outside Round.

Cooking methods
Typical methods include high-heat searing or grilling for steaks, resting before slicing, and cutting across the grain when the muscle is fibrous. Because this cut sits on the round primal (Small oval muscle within the outside round), adjust time and temperature to thickness and marbling.
