Some people refer to Chuck Roast as a poor mans brisket.... which doesn't really make sense because chuck roast cost more than brisket per pound.

Chuck is way better than brisket

I wouldn't say that... if smoking traditional I think a brisket is better. the problem is a lot of people can't pull off a brisket cook. Chuck roast is alright cooked like a brisket but not as good as a brisket that was cooked right. But I do cook a lot of chuck roast other ways and love it.

It is due to 'fads' and marketing. Look at flank and skirt cuts which years back were poor mans cuts until the Tex-Mex fajitas craze went national. Same with chicken wings, if you can find them and you will pay 4x the cost per lb of actual meat than you will for thighs. Brisket is another one.
Just think of the money you’ll save when that Argentinian beef gets here!
