Beef Arm Roast

[rodkeary]

Earlier today I picked up a 30# variety pack from Sweet Grass Farms. sgfbeef.com

I've purchased their ground beef before, as that was all that was available at the time, and was blown away. So I'm unpacking the box and come across a roast labeled "Beef Arm Roast". I had never heard of the term before. I googled it up and it would seem to be similar to a chuckie?

Has anyone had any experience with this particular cut and if, so suggest a cooking method. Would it be suitable for a low & slow pulled chuck type cook. I've never attempted one before but I'd like to try.

Thanks,

Yeah buuuudy! You got yourself a Chuckie! They are great for pulled beef. Cook them like you would a brisket. But sometimes they require a higher finishing temp. Like 208 F.

I thought he had a portion of the forequarter. Are you familiar with this cut?

[rodkeary]

Beauty! This beef is grass fed and as such, leaner than what I would normally find at Costco (and I love Costco meats). Sweet Grass Farms suggest a shorter cooking time for their products so I'll probably be monitoring for probe tender a bit earlier in the cook than normal.

Thanks,

Yes, it's from the fore quarter, but at least around here, it's cut from a somewhat leaner area of the forequarter than the normal "chuck roast". Grass fed plus arm roast + pretty lean piece of front leg.

I'm not sure theirs another way other than a grind. If you can get the small piece above the hip bone (aitch) or shoulder that would be cooked like a steak.

[Spinaker]

Yes. It is part of the forequarter. Part of the chuck, just above the fore shank. HouseHomey

I imagine it looks something like this. Or the Ole' 96 er from Great Outdoors!

One of my favorite movies of all time. What a cast! What levity! xaugievike

Spinaker handing you the crown 👑 . Not a lot of odd cuts where they film reality shows about house wifes. just lean meat unless you search otherwise. I relinquish my soapbox fine sir.

[Spinaker]

Nah, Homey. I am no butcher. Although, I have a few beef-cut charts up in my house!! A single man can get away with that one!

Spinaker I'm still trying to get Sophia to agree to maps on the wall and the "dogs playing poker." I like the one with the German Shepard cheating.

I've gotten these before I started smoking meats and did them in a slow cooker. Low and slow, take it past pink. Spinaker 's advice here should work well.
