Chuck Roast

Coming from the steer’s shoulder, the muscle is known to be medium-active, influencing its popular characteristics: firm yet tender in texture, juicy, and consistent. Each roast ranges from 2.5 lb. to 3.5 lb. Though best after a pot-roast, braising to a shredded state is also a common method of preparation.
