Which part of a cow does chuck meat come from?

Chuck is the primal cut from the cow's shoulder and neck area, a well-exercised part of the animal that's rich in flavor but tough due to connective tissue, making it ideal for slow cooking methods like braising, stewing, and pot roasts, or for flavorful ground beef. Popular cuts from the chuck include the 7-bone steak, flat iron steak, and chuck roast, which tenderize beautifully when cooked low and slow.
