Unsure which meats are chunk beef? : AskCulinary
Hello, I’m looking to cook a beef stew for my father. I’m vegetarian and I know little about meat and cuts, but I did my best to figure out the recipe. I can figure out every step except the beef. Specifically it says it requires 1kg of chuck beef. I looked up the cost at my local butchers, since I know meat can be expensive, but now I’m not certain which is the right listing because none of them are labelled as chuck. I checked if chuck beef had a different name but could not find one. These are the meats listed on the website:
-
Beef brisket
-
Blade roast
-
Porterhouse
-
Round steak
-
Rump steak
-
Scotch fillet steak
-
Topside steak
-
Diced beef
Are any of these chuck beef? And if not, which others would be suitable for a slow-cooking stew? My partner recommended brisket but I would love to get a few other opinions. Thank you very much.
EDIT: Title should say ‘chuck’ beef not ‘chunk’ beef! Sorry!
