Bobby, I think you meant to say[8D], the tender loin is the piece of meat on the inside of the body cavity and yes when fresh can be peeled out with just the hands( we refer to it as the tear drop, due to it' s shape[&:]). The backstrap is the pieces of meat running from rear to neck located on either sides of the spine and is where you get the T- bones and strip steaks from. Both are choice meat and never make it to long in my freezer [:-]but are 2 seperate muscles(or piece of meat).

Anybody confussed yet
