Beginner and intermediate butchers alike will benefit from this class. The boneless chuck roll subprimal comes from the beef shoulder. Students will create chuck eye steaks, Denver steaks, a sierra steak, and a chuck roast, wrapped and ready to fill their home freezers. Foundational concepts such as food safety, knife safety, knife sharpening, quadruped anatomy, and beef muscle cookery will be covered as well. The meat knowledge and knife skills practiced during subprimal butchery will dovetail into all your future butchery and cookery pursuits.Subprimal cuts of meat, like the boneless chuck roll, are readily available for purchase year-round at most grocery stores. This offers a low barrier to entry, as an empowering and practical alternative to whole-carcass butchery. Boneless beef subprimals provide an accessible, affordable, and repeatable pathway to fill your home freezer and microdose your butchery skills. More broadly, building these skills within our communities holds the potential to combat food insecurity and connect more families with viable and nutritious food choices.
Instructions: Please bring an apron and any meat-cutting knives you’d like to use. The instructor will have loaner knives available. Students will go home with 15-30 lbs of wrapped steaks, roasts, and trim. If you have far to drive, you may want to bring a cooler to take home your meat.
