I'm building a coffee table with breadboard ends. In the plans they call for long grain plugs. Which the screws go into holding the ends on. I'm a little confused, does the face grain of the plug face outward? towards the screw. In other words I would cut the plugs out of the end grain?

A dowel stuck into a hole leaves end grain showing.
A plug (use plug cutter) leaves long grain showing.

Is this what you're asking?

Yes, Thanks Joe that make sense.
