About this cut
What it is and how to use it
Shoulder steaks are slices from the front shoulder muscles. They are lean for a chuck cut, with a fine seam of connective tissue and robust beef flavor. They can be tough if cooked carelessly, so they usually get marinated and cooked quickly, or braised until tender. They are a practical steak for fajitas, sandwiches, and weeknight stir-fries when sliced thin.
Cook’s tipMarinate for a few hours, cook to at least 145°F, rest three minutes, and slice thin across the grain. Or braise until fork-tender.
