The best stewing steak is the steak known as Chuck.
Chuck is the best steak to use when making stew and is the most commonly used steak for making the best stew.
You can use any kind of steak you want to make the stew with but chuck steak is the best and most used.
If you want the best made stew then use chuck but if you can't get any chuck then use any other steak you prefer.
Besides the chuck steak the round steak cut of meat also makes for a great stew as well.
So if you cannot find chuck steak then look for round steak and use round steak cut of meat if you can find it.
I always use chuck steak for my homemade stews and it's what my Grandma used and my mom used and uses in her stews.
