    What's the best cut for smoking roast beef?

    beef clod hearts, from the chuck section also will make some nice roast beef for sammies... just be sure and remove the flatiron strip as they make sime very fine steak cutlets...(almost as tender as tenderloin but twice as tasty)... it is also one of the more economical primal cuts to be had.

    Wood chips/chunks, soak or no soak, pouch or directly on the fire?

    should be able to fab something like a mini basket that you could adjust distance away from your coals to have your wood chunk in.... as far as the preburn there are alot of things in wood which do not burn off clean. if you watch when you get a chunk smoking you will not get your desired TBS...

    What Vacuum Sealer is Best/ Do You Have

    those pop can crushers are the good FOODSAVER brand sealers. they were made in italy before the company broke up and went to an asian made product which in my opinion is one of the biggest rips to be had in the market place. those originals still can be had on ebay at times, either used or the...
