I have 4+ lbs of beef chuck steak in my freezer. I was wondering if I could use those to make beef stew, or if I would be better off with beef chuck roast. The steaks are 1-1 1/4" thick, frozen. Thank you!

2I like the idea of using what you have. Eventually it is going to get freezer burn and not be as good. Stew is a great destiny for freezer meet. – Willk Mar 3 at 20:15

A chuck steak is simply cut into slices more ideal for grilling whereas a roast is left in larger thicker shapes more ideal for roasting. Once you break them down into stew shape either is viable.

Though steaks are often priced higher because of the extra labor involved. – Lee Daniel Crocker Mar 5 at 1:07

@LeeDanielCrocker sometimes, but when cleaning out your freezer such concerns aren't as important. – bruglesco Mar 5 at 1:31
