A Grilled Chuck Roast, by RS

[Retired Spook]

Picked up a prime chuck roast at HEB

Sprinkled with Kosher salt and set it in the fridge overnight. This morning I injected it with a 50/50 mixture of Lea & Perrin's Worcestershire sauce and unsalted beef stock and put it back in the fridge for 4-hours+ then let it sit on the counter to come to full room temperature.

Started a mesquite fire in the pit, got some good coals going and tossed it on the fire.

I didn't time it but by instinct and voodoo alone, I turned it over when it needed turning over.

Then when it was finished grillin' - again just by instinct and voodoo - I wrapped it in heavy aluminum foil and placed it in the microwave to let it rest for an hour (no, I did not turn the microwave on - its just a nice micro-climate). After 1-hour I opened it up to see this mouthwatering sight!

I placed it on the cutting board, reserved the liquid, sliced some up, and dipped those slices in the liquid and MAN that stuff is fricken good! Came out fabulous! Juicy, tender, packed with awesome flavor, cooked just right - I love the tatse of chuck above all other beef cuts.

Did a good job there with that chuck.
I've posted here a couple of times about grilled chucks, and I'm a big fan.
I did one over a campfire (with video and music). And I did one for my first cook on my santa maria grill.

Thanks, but yours looks better than mine. I never tried wrapping during the rest. Will next time though.
