Chuck roast

- Flavor and fat: Rich and beefy flavor, with a good amount of fat and connective tissue.
- Cooking: Best for slow-cooking methods like pot roasting, braising, or stewing, as the connective tissue breaks down to create a tender and moist result.
- Other uses: Can be ground for hamburger meat.
Chuck eye roast
Cut: A specific cut from the center of the chuck, near the ribeye. It is a type of boneless chuck roast.

- Cooking: Also suitable for slow cooking but can also be used for roasts or steaks.
