I wanted to slow cook a beef roast to pull and make Green Chile, and you all overwhelmingly voted for the Chuck Roast.

I have made this green chile in the past, but always done it with a Boston Butt. So this weekend, I decided smoke a Pork Butt, AND a Chuck Roast and see which people liked better.

Here is the seasoned Butt, which I then wrapped and set in fridge over night. I didnt go too heavy on rub since it was goin in the green chile

I got my fire started at 8:30 am, and got the meat put on @ 9:30.

Here is one of the only times I was happy with my temp gauge. It got so windy out, that the gauge was goin way up, and way down with every big gust.

One thing I use as a liquid and also is good for pouring over the top when done is this Stokes sauce...this stuff is awesome on everything omelets,burritos,ect... I use it and green chiles on everything. Just thought I would pass it on to ya. the finished product looks GREAT

Our walmart carry's it over by the mexican section...it is by far my go to sauce.
 
Great looking burritos. Sam's Club has the Stokes Green Chile Sauce here. I keep a good supply in the pantry. I also lather up my burritos with Tabasco green.
 
Was going to ask which was the winner but 2-2 seems about right.
I don't think I could make up my mind if I had to choose between the two.

for a delicious experiment!
 
Nice job, I eat a lot of green chili stew here, not smoked though. I did make smoked chicken green chili soup and it was delicious, made with a cream base.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks guys. I have a ton leftover.

Looks like I'm making chimichangas tonight for an early x-mas present for some friends and fam
 
First off those both look great and I really love the green chili part the best. And then you used it in both so I win both ways.

Have to go out for you pulling it off and you ended up with a tie. Well looks like you'll have to send some down here and we will do the tie breaker thingy. Great Job.
 
Looks fantastic and sure it tasted it as well.I have 20 pounds roasted and frozen from this years garden and i love them green chiles...
