The last time I bought a chuck roast from Hyvee my wife picked it up and said this was what they had as chuck roast in the cooler. It was tougher than usual and the cut was weird, called it a petite chuck like what you have there and charged $7/lb and it didn't cook up like I'm accustomed to at all.
I've been more than happy with the stuff I've bought from Hyvee in the past, but I'm gonna roll with Costco two packs until I see the more normal ones I'm accustomed to.
Got one thawing now for beef and broccoli tomorrow and it's pretty as can be for the same price or even less than what Hyvee has. I think you're safe to blame the butcher moreso than the cow if you had the same experience as I did.
