Started off with a couple CAB chuck roasts picked up at the local grocer. One is just over 4.5lbs and the other is just under 3.5lbs.

Good price for my neck of the woods:

Thick with a fairly even cut. One rubbed down with Weber's and the other Stub's:

Onto the WSM for a long afternoon nap:

At the 4hr mark - tossed on a rack of St. Louis style ribs for the wife: notice how the snow disappeared.

Ribs finished: Sorry no sliced shots the wife took them into the back room watch the hoop cat's play.

This ones for faux burnt ends: Done the next day in the oven due to mother nature.

Cubed up and into Grandma' baked bean and pea soup casserole dish: Mixed with worcestershire sauce, A1 sauce, some Baby Ray's and a little more rub. Finished shot.

The other chucky was shredded and vacuum sealed for a later date:

Both turned out fantastic. Smoked with hickory and apple wood at roughly 250. The shredded chuck roast took about 8 to 9 hrs on the smoker to hit 209. The burnt end chuck took about 7 to hit 185. I pulled the burnt end's chuck cubed it up and finished it in the oven at 275 for about 3hrs the next day. Tender is as tender can get. With the sauce mixture I couldn't taste the smoke. The shredded definatley has the smoke taste.

Will for sure be doing this again as I picked up 3 additional roasts for a later date.

Hope you enjoyed.
Chris.

Everything looks good. That pulled chunky looks especially good! Pea soup casserole? That sounds good! Might have to hit you up for that recipe! Never did a pulled chuck yet. It’s on my bucket list.
 
Chris that looks great to me I never see chucks on sale here so I have never tried one. LIKES

Thanks yankee, sorry I should have wrote that clearer. My grandma always sent me home with a care-package of sorts whenever I visited her. That was her casserole dish and she would make me my favorite thick green pea soup or very thick homemade baked beans and send it home with me in that dish. The beans were so thick that they wouldn't fall off your spoon. Thanks for the like.

Nice indeed!
Love how snow in one shot and snow gone in next shot..

Haha.
Looks yummy!

Thanks for the like Rings. Yeah I didn't notice the missing snow until I was posting the pic's.

Very Nice, Chris!!:)
Love me some Pulled Beef!!
Like.

Bear

Thanks bear for the like. Pulled beef is fast becoming a favorite in our home.
 
Nice smoke...thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the like hardcookin, initially I wasn't going to post it because there seems to be an awe-full lot of chuckies being smoked lately.

I love that you got some ribs in there. Like!

WSM = man's best friend.

The ribs were for my wife and sister who were watching the UVM cats play basketball in the back room. I didn't even get one rib. Heck I didn't even see them sliced. Thanks for the like.

Chris that looks great to me I never see chucks on sale here so I have never tried one. LIKES
Richie

Thanks for the like Richie. Yeah I understand what your saying about sales. Up here you either hit them or don't.

Awesome job!
Everything looks delicious!
Al

Thanks Al really appreciate the like. I've always wanted to do burnt-ends, but could never find a packer. After reading all the chuckie thread on the forum lately and finding these on sale I said why not. Couldn't be happier.

Thanks for looking and the kind words.
Chris.
 
Looks really good. I have a chuck thawing in the fridge to smoke this Saturday. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for the like amlong. Are you going to pull the chuckie or make burnt ends? Either way post up the results.

Chris
 
2.99 a pound is impossible to find in So Cal. The lowest I've seen chuck roast in three years is 3.99 a pound. Tri tip actually sold for 2.99 a pound twice this last year but it's usually 4.99-6.99 a pound. You got a great deal on some fine looking roast. Good job :)
