Of course! Chuck roast is a popular beef cut from the shoulder; it is also a great cut of meat for a slow cooker roast but is not as lean and has more marbling than the rump roast. I recommend a rump roast because it is considered an extra-lean cut. Sometimes called a bottom round rump roast or round tip roast, the flavorful rump roast comes from the hindquarters and is well suited for slow cooking.
