Heads up, Costco shoppers — chuck roast has been spotted by one of our faithful followers with a solid discount worth checking out. If you’ve been waiting for a reason to fire up the slow cooker or Dutch oven (or your smoker*), this might be it.
Chuck roast is one of the most versatile and forgiving cuts of beef you can buy. It comes from the shoulder area, which means it’s loaded with connective tissue that breaks down beautifully during long, slow cooking – yielding that fall-apart, melt-in-your-mouth texture we all crave. Costco’s chuck roasts are typically USDA Choice grade, making them a reliable pick for quality.
The larger packages are currently marked down with $30.00 off, and there’s also a discount on the smaller packaged chuck roasts ($8.00 off). That kind of savings on beef is nothing to shrug at, especially with beef prices continuing to be elevated across the board. Whether you’re feeding a crowd or meal-prepping for the week, this is a practical way to stretch your grocery budget without sacrificing quality protein.
*If you’re into smoked meats like we are (brisket and ribs are our go-tos), do yourself a favor and throw a chuck roast on the smoker. It’s basically a “poor man’s brisket.” It won’t win any beauty contests next to a whole packer brisket, but smoke it the same way and the end result is nearly identical once you slice or chop it – at a fraction of the cost. We love it!
