Any Suggestions for Beef Shoulder roast?

The local Piggly Wiggly has beef shoulder roast for $1.99 a pound, most likely select grade.
Is this a candidate for pulled beef?  I think I fixed one before and found it to be a tough cut of beef.
Is it something to cook low & slow like a pork butt?

Yep....Treat it like a brisket - or pork butt...LOTS of time at low temp. Can be a REAL treat. In Texas you can find Shoulder Clod at some of the best BBQ joints. Has a real beefy - sirloin flavor.

Yep, that's just another name for a Chuck roast, or "Beef Chuck Shoulder Roast" and is excellent for pulled beef, pepper stout beef, or any other way you'd typically use a Chuck roast.

Like Tim said, low & slow works well for this cut.

If it's cut thick enough you can also cook it med-rare, let it rest for at least 30 minutes, and slice for roast beef sandwiches.

Also good for "poor man's" burnt ends.

Cook it like you would cook a chuck roast or a brisket.

Tastes better than a brisket if you ask me.
