After cooking a chuck roast sous vide the bag has a lot of juice in it. My question is is this juice the same as beef stock or can it be used as stock?

Yes, stainless rod and bolts, Sometimes I use weights sometimes I don't, sometimes I get floaters when there's a lot of fat content, so If Im doing a bag of fat trimmings, yes I will definitely weight it.
