What is chuck eye steak?

Chuck eye steak is a cut of beef that comes from the chuck primal, specifically from the area near the shoulder of the cow. Often referred to as the "poor man's ribeye," it is known for its rich flavor and tenderness, making it a popular choice for grilling or pan-searing. This cut is less expensive than ribeye but can offer similar taste and texture when cooked properly. It typically contains a good amount of marbling, which enhances its juiciness and flavor.
