The shoulder is much leaner and lacks some (not all) of the connecting tissues that is found in chuck. Use your chuck recipe, but remmebr thes roasts are tough and require long cooking times. I do mine between 3 1/2 and four hours.
The rump, sirloin, inside round, etc., are better suited to roasting. A New Orelans Roast Beef Po-boy is first roasted and then sliced and put back in gravy to continue cooking until tender. and it don't get no better than a real New Orleans Po-boy. Pass the napkins.

I love the rump roast because the slices of beef are so nice. I've sliced it off cold for a quick sandwich and we love it or it makes darned good roast and gravy! My last attempt was my best ever. Just some pepper and onion soup mix added half way through cooking. The broths was excellent but added canned broth and made a rich dark brown gravy by adding flour and water. Gravy was poured over the sliced roast and potato dumplings. I died and went to heaven. My arm is still out of whack from patting my self on the back.
