Chuck Roll

Meat

Chuck Roll

Beef chuck roll is the boneless cylindrical chuck primal after neck and blade bones are removed—source of chuck-eye steaks, Denver steaks, and pot-roast blocks. Muscle complexity is high; different seams suit different cook methods once the butcher separates them. Roast or braise as a whole roll; or break into steaks and stew meat. Season generously. A packing-house workhorse that yields many retail products from one primal.
