Chuck roast for slicing.

[bigr314]

I have a 2# chuck roast I would like to smoke tomorrow and slice it.I have read a ton of posts but most are for pulling. The roast is in the frig right now covered in Jeff's rub. I plan on smoking at 225-230 degrees to an IT of 140. Then wrapping in foil for at least 1 hr. then slice. Is this the best way of doing this? Any other suggestions?

I believe everybody usually goes to 195* to 210* IT, and pulls their chuckies, because they aren't the most tender meat to be sliced at 140*.

I like a Sirloin Tip. It should be sliced thin.  Below is a Step by Step of one of mine:

I'm all sbout the sirloin tip. Smoke 3-4 hours 240º with some nice cherry and oak. I only us salt , pepper, thyme and rosemary. Let it rest over night if I can , then I slice at 1mm on my slicer. This doesn't last long, so set some aside fir later.
