First chuck roll I took the steaks and roasts and made the rest into beef sticks.
Second one, I wasn't paying attention and bought the "Sliced" chuck roll. Not what I wanted but, it is completely sliced and now we have 30lbs of fajita/Philly Cheesesteak meat.
This third one will be cut up tomorrow into steaks, roasts, and burger. It will avg. out to about $6.50/meal for a family with 2 teenage boys and another boy that is almost a teen.

You a meat cutter? not to many folks know about chuck eyes. I miss the old days of cutting meat.
Nope. Actually found chuck eye steaks at Wal Mart once, years ago. A google search later and I know all about them :chuckle: Now I love them. 9/10 as good as a rib eye at a fraction of the price. I'm guessing they'll skyrocket in price like short ribs did a few years ago when all the cooking shows started using them.

I might have to "invest" in a grinder, too.

You had me at cheesesteaks. I will have to seek these out, as I have a two growing boys.Definitely invest in a grinder. I don't know how I ever got by without one.

Look for the "Sliced" chuck roll. Cash and Carry has them right by the whole chuck roll. The sliced version is more expensive though

So this chuck roll idea got my attention, I bought a 21 pounder at cash n carry. Cut 4 nice steaks, cut a large roast, cut a few pounds of stew meat and then ground the rest into burgers! Oh my, the burgers were absolutely awesome! I will do this again! I believe I paid $2.74 a pound for the roll.
Thanks for the heads up on this!

I have been eating chuckeye steaks for about 15 years. We first were introduced to them by Gene, the butcher at the old Summit Trading grocery store on Canyon road. We were hooked! Back then they were like $1.79 pound. Now they are at least $5.99 or more.

We have them here in Spokane, but i've not seen this cut of meat there. Maybe I'll ask next time i'm in.

As much as I love chuck eye's, I'm actually more excited for the roasts. My wife makes a KILLER pot roast. :drool:
I'm heading to Cash and Carry this week to look for one. Now...all we need is your wife's recipe! :EAT:

Everything my wife does is in her head. A pinch of this, a dash of that. She literally has no recipes written down anywhere and when I've asked her for recipes before, she says she can't recall them and she just does what feels right when cooking. She flies by the seat of her pants in the kitchen
