CHEF'S KNIFE TIP:
When trimming excess fat from the chuck roast, use your chef's knife to make precise cuts, ensuring that only the necessary fat is removed while preserving the structure of the meat. Additionally, when slicing the rested chuck roast against the grain, use a sharp chef's knife to achieve clean slices, resulting in tender and flavorful pieces of meat for serving.
