What to grab (and what to leave on the shelf)

🥩 The Beef Secret

Stew meat (1½ lbs): Chuck roast only (not “stew cubes”). Must be chilled (not room temp—melts into grease).

Critical prep: Pat bone-dry with paper towels. Wet beef = steamed, not seared.

Why chuck? Mama’s rule: “Lean cuts = surrender. Chuck = hope.”
