About Stew meat

Stew meat is typically comprised of tougher cuts of beef, such as chuck, round, or brisket, that are diced into bite-sized chunks. This protein-rich ingredient is commonly used in hearty, slow-cooked dishes like stews, soups, and curries, drawing inspiration from cuisines worldwide, including American, French, and Caribbean. Since it's derived from lean yet flavorful portions of the cow, stew meat is an excellent source of essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, which contribute to energy production and immune function. When simmered over time, these cuts become tender and develop a rich, robust flavor. However, depending on its preparation, stew meat can be high in saturated fat, especially when paired with heavy sauces or additional fats. Opting for trimmed cuts and combining it with vegetables can enhance both its nutritional profile and its role in a balanced diet.
