Picked up a 3.3 lb top round. Rubbed it with montreal seasoning, onion powder and garlic powder. only had 5 hrs to let it sit in the fridge as it was a last minute purchase this morning. also put some red potatoes on and 2 eggs to try smoking them. Cooking everything on my UDS. Planning to cook to 130 and wrap to sit till dinner. Put it on at noon @ 220 - 225 pit temp. a little windy today so the temps are fluctuating a bit.


 
Well that cooked pretty fast. Hit 130 at 2.25 hrs. took it out, foiled it, stuck the probe back in to see how high it got resting, wrapped in a towel and in a cooler. Temp rose to 136 before starting to fall again. Took it out and sliced it as thin as I could with a knife. Damn It tastes good. On my remake list. Told the wife I wanted a slicer for my birthday at the end of the month.




The eggs were good too. Just barely a hint of smoke taste. Definately making deviled eggs out of it in the future. Will have to try cold smoke when I get set up for that. 
 
Very nice job, I say you did great

Thanks guys. Think this just helped me convince the wife I need a slicer.

  She said I cut it a little too thick for sandwiches. But man it's great eating the slices. Having trouble walking away. My 5 year old loves it too.
