Does this sound like a pork sirloin roast to you?

Question

I bought this cut of meat labeled as pork sirloin roast.  Online the description for this said it’s a lean meat and it should not be overcooked so it does not dry out.

I was planning to use it cut up and grilled on skewers, which I thought would be fine for meat of that description.

However this meat is full of fat throughout. I tried to cut around it but it was impossible. Looks more like stew meat.   Is it possible it was labeled wrong? Should I cook it longer, more like a stew (now that it’s cut up)?

It was only$1.99/lb on sale.

Fatty meat is the best to grill because grilling drys it out.  
You could cook it in a crock pot then rip it apart for pulled pork with bbq sauce on and put in buns.

Whomever labeled it Pork Sirloin Roast doesn't understand meat cuts, since there is no such thing. You probably have a pork shoulder, which can have a lot of fat on it. You would be best off just using it for a stew or a soup. Buy yourself a Boneless Pork Loin to cut up for skewers. Or if yo want to spend more money, buy a tenderloin-but be careful when grilling it on skewers as it can dry out.

There is no such thing as pork sirloin. The word sirloin refers to beef. What to do? I'd try to figure out a way to render out the fat.  which means slow cooking.To be honest, I'd be scared crazy about $2/lb meat. It could be the worst scraps of anything.
