Some of the cheaper cuts of meat offer the most flavor, especially when they are slow-cooked. The following all benefit from braising or stewing, but we also suggest additional cooking methods. We were disappointed in the inexpensive cuts of veal, so we didn’t include any.
Beef
Short ribs (marinate and grill), brisket (barbecue), chuck boneless top blade steaks (grill, stir-fry), chuck boneless blade roast, oxtails.
Pork
Boston butt (roast), country-style ribs (broil, roast), fresh ham (roast), picnic roast, shanks.
Lamb
Shoulder blade chops (broil), boneless shoulder (roast), breast riblets, neck, shanks.
