Beef Chuck Roast
$8.99/LB
Comes from:
The chuck, aka the shoulder, a well-worked area.
Best cooking method:
Chuck roast requires wet heat to break down its tissue. Cooking one is an easy and forgiving process, though it can take several hours. If you’re in a rush, you can make quick work of it in a pressure cooker. Braise with your favorite root vegetables, then pair with some crusty bread for sopping up the goodness.
Tips:
When you’re in a mood for a nice and stew-y, pot roast-y roast — as opposed to the sort of roast beef you can slice thin and rare — this is the cut for you. It has tons of fat so it’s impossible to overcook. For more tips on roasting beef, check out our blog on the topic.
