What are some cheaper cuts of meat that y’all make really tasty products out of? I’m a single guy looking for cheap sous vide option for meal plans and freezing for future meals. Any suggestions are appreciated!! Photo of a random sous vide NY strip (can’t afford cuts like that right now lol)

chuck roll and top sirloin, cut the right way, from costco
Denver steaks can be hard to find nationally in the U.S., but they’re great for r/sousvide for a couple reasons.
1. They’re cheap and undesirable to the average consumer.
2. They’re the most flavorful cuts that can be enhanced with this method IMO
Treat them like ribeyes but add an hour and you can do whatever you want with them. Steak, tacos, appetizers, fuck it, just make sure you cut against the grain.
I just tried beef shanks and completely failed!
Chuck roast. You can pull apart the different muscles/cuts from the whole roast depending on the cut you get. Each part can be cooked a little differently, and some parts can be treated like steaks.

What did you do with that juicy cheese mushroom combo on the right?
Also: Chuck roast. Look for Sir Charles on this sub.
Beef Round. Great for slicing thin for sandwiches.
