Connecting People With Where Their Food Comes From — Chuck Eye Steak
Want the flavor of a great steak without paying ribeye prices?
Meet the chuck eye steak.
Chuck eye comes from the chuck primal, right where the chuck meets the rib section. It contains a continuation of the same muscle that makes up much of the ribeye — which is exactly why it has earned the nickname “the poor man’s ribeye.”
And that’s one of the reasons we love teaching people about different cuts of beef.
You don’t have to buy the most expensive steaks in the freezer to put a great steak dinner on the table. Cuts like chuck eye can give you beautiful marbling, big beefy flavor and a tender steak at a much more approachable price.
There are only a few true chuck eye steaks on each beef, making them one of those lesser-known cuts worth knowing about. We make a point to keep them stocked at our retail locations so you can take advantage of this affordable little hidden gem.
Despite coming from the chuck, this isn’t one you need to cook all day. Chuck eye does beautifully cooked hot and fast on the grill, in cast iron or on the Blackstone. Season it simply, don’t overcook it, give it a few minutes to rest, and slice against the grain.
Connecting people with where their food comes from isn't just about knowing how an animal was raised. It's also about learning how to use more of that animal — and discovering some really great, affordable cuts along the way.
