roast
The Minute Roast is a smaller shoulder cut that’s naturally tender and full of flavor. Running through the center is a strip of connective tissue that breaks down during long cooking, adding moisture and richness. Its name can be misleading. It’s not cooked in minutes, but it can be portioned into split roasts for quicker grilling. Braised whole, it yields a soft, juicy roast that slices beautifully for serving.
