Expensive cuts of meat tend to be the ones that are tender and can be
cooked quickly and easily. This doesn't mean that you can't create a
great meal with a cut that costs less. Barbecue and Grilling give you
the ability to cook these cuts right and make something better than most
any restaurant can turn out. These are the perfect meats for the grill
or smoker that cost less but still make for a great cookout.
[Barbecue and Grill are synonyms]
Chuck Steaks are a great alternative to more expensive
steaks and the chuck eye steak is the best of this primal cut. Make sure
you talk to your butcher so you are sure of what you are getting. Chuck steaks are not as tender as their more expensive cousins and will benefit from a good marinade.
This will make the meat more tender so you won't notice that you save
yourself some money. Also, avoid overcooking chuck steaks. They are
perfect at medium rare, but tough at well done no matter how you prepared it before it hit the grill.
