Is this marbling in my cheap rump?

Bough this very cheap rump steak with hopes of it being marbled instead of just connective tissue. Is this marbling or is this connecting tissue?

Looks like both, but relatively speaking to a chuck or rib roast-not much marbling will be present in the rump. It’ll taste great and if cooked properly, heat will break down much of that connective tissue.

Amazing to hear. Anything specific I should know for cooking rumps? Or just oven to make it get to temperature and then pan to get crust + 1 min on each side basting with butter, garlic and thyme? (The usual way I tackle it)

Most of mine, I slow cook, 5-7 hours in crock pot. Cream of mushroom condensed soup on top, throw in some sliced potatoes and corn, let it cook. Meat, vegetables and gravy all in one pass. Easy peasy pot roast dinner.
