Underated?
-Organ meats -you can get some delicious flavours out of kidneys & livers with the right cooking.
-Mutton - getting harder to source it by the day. Its better in some dishes than lamb.
-Cabbage - it seems to be falling out of favour, but its very versatile.
-Eels - delish!

Over-rated?
- Fillet steak. yep its soft, but bland. You've got to add flavour so much IMHO. And the price! I think the attraction is more in the snob appeal.
- Lobsters - ditto as per fillet steak. Crab tastes better - just on its own.
- Turkey. Unless you really know what you're doing - its dry. And all that bone to the ratio of meat. Dunno why some people torture themselves each year trying to make it nice. Tradition I guess.

That's all for today....your turn!
