For our family, one Boston roast with all the leftovers lasts about 3 meals. It is a delicious source of protein and tastes great on its own or repurposed into other dishes. We made barbecue omelets with the leftovers. It also tastes great in tacos or in a protein-rich salad.

Recipe for the best Boston steak
Store any leftovers in the remaining juices for best flavor and tenderness. If you want to cool it, cool it with the liquid too. This will protect the surface during melting.
If there is too much liquid for you after cooking, there is an easy fix. Cook for 10-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until reduced and glossy and slightly thickened. It should be spooned on, not runny like a sauce.
This recipe is great for cooking. Use leftovers for tacos, nachos, baked potatoes, salad dressing or breakfast hash.
