shoulder roast

Beef arm portion

A shoulder roast is a cut of meat from the shoulder of an animal, typically beef, pork, or lamb.

The shoulder gets regular use during the animal's life, making this cut flavorful but tougher than cuts from less-worked areas.

Shoulder roasts benefit from slow cooking methods like braising or roasting at low temperatures: I put a pork shoulder roast in the slow cooker this morning.
