Had to give my new slicer a work out so I thought why not roast beef. I happened to check the deli price of 11.99 a LB? the raost was on sale for 2.99 a LB so I got 3 LBS for 10.00.

Fresh & ready

Be back soon with more. My WSM got out of hand at 325 so I'm working her back down
 
So here we are at the 2 hour mark. I just now probed it. Its already reading 130? awfully fast? Looks alot pink & completely not firm, but I know my probes are right? I'm taking it to 140  & letting it coast to 145 just to be safe. I think I'll thermapen it as well just to be safe!

So how long was the total cook time?  I did an elk roast a while back (even more lean than that roast), and I was really surprised how quick it got to temps.  I chalked it up to not having much fat to insulate it, but I don't know if that's why.  But it definitely got up to temps much faster than I thought it would.
 
So I pulled if out of the frige & put her in my bright new shiney slicer & this is what I came up with. It took 2.5 hours. I used hickory & apple. I'll be coming home early today for some sammies!!

Thanks guys! Was my first one. Wasn't exactly the way & taste I was hoping for but good all the same. I'm going to try soaking some in the Au Ju tonight to try & get more of a beef taste?
