Can you roast a short loin instead of cutting it into steaks?

The short loin is a tender cut of meat but because it has the backbone of the cow (and may have a rib or two on one end) it is not so much if it can be roasted ... all tender cuts of cow can be cooked with dry heat ... it is more in the carving.

The finished roast must be trimmed off the backbone (and would be NY Strip cuts) again a whole short loin would have part of the tenderloin separated by the "T" or chine bone.

Anyway, a six or seven lb. piece can be roasted nicely and presented like a rib roast.
