Can you name this meat?

I took this out of freezer thinking it was pork butt but looks like beef. It marbled like pork butt and very soft. Was getting ready to make green chili stew with some fresh hot hatch peppers. Now not sure what to do?

I sliced a piece in cooked in pan. Its beef and tasted pretty darn good. What to do with it? Almost think would be good cooked mid rare?

I think it a chuck. Think maybe throw in sous vide and do the 30 135 degree think. Found some thick pork sirloin chops I think will work. Threw them in the sous vide at 100. Should that pretty quick.

I think its a very odd looking chuck roll...

Maybe could make this work with jcam222 Barbacoa

I had quite a bit of pulled chuck left from smoking 3 this past weekend. There was a fair amount of it that was still a bit tighter than I would have like too. I got an urge for Mexican tonight so decided to repurpose a lot of it into barbacoa. After a quick check of the pantry it was a go...

Looks like it’s marbles enough to pull or chop so probably so. You can smoke that for a couple hours, out in a pan with the sauce and cover. Braise in smoker for hours until tender.

That what i using now for green chili stew. I was thinking could smoke some, sous vide then simmer in Barbacoa sauce.

Sounds like a plan . It's been so hot here , the Anova , and the instant pot got a workout last week . Did part of a brisket flat in the instant pot for tacos . It was so good .

looks like a boneless pork butt with a piece of fat cap left that looks like beef fat.


My 2 cents

It is beef. I was buying those 2 packs of chuck for cheap. I sure that where it came from. Just a wierd looking one. I was really want to try that Barbacoa and one way or a other this going to be it! I do think Bears Sous Vide mid rare would also be great though. See what tomorrow brings. I also keep putting off some home brewing been wanting to do using George Washington recipe. Got to make that happen. These 2 days off just is not enough. To much to do!

I didn't offer an opinion after you said is was beef . I've had pork butt to long in the freezer that looks exactly like that .

A friend told me to fry a piece. After did that was definitely beef and has real good flavor. That green chili stew done and man does it taste good! My buddy grandmother recipe.
