My first roast beef!!!

[Smkryng]

Well, I’ve been in the mood for a good roast beef (not Arby’s,but the real thing) so I thought I’d give it a whirl.

2.68# chuck tender roast

•Rubbed with Montreal Steak seasoning

•240 degrees on the MES
about 3 1/2 hours till an IT of 145 with mesquite for the whole smoke

•Rested covered for an hour then a few samples sliced

• stores in plastic wrap till it can be ran through the slicer on paper thin tomorrow

For a first roast beef I have no complaints. I’m not familiar with the “chuck tender roast” but I don’t think it was a bad choice for this smoke. Flavor is amazing and I will be doing this smoke again, probably before the weekend! This is my first experience with mesquite and I wasn’t disappointed.

Awesome beef roast. It looks real guuud. I surprised Bunny on the Fourth of July with some MR sirloin tip roast pit beef on onion roll and slathered with melted Velveeta sharp cheddar and hacked Arby’s red ranch drool. The better than Arby’s beef n cheddar sans mystery meat. Thin slicing is a must and you nailed it.

It sure looks good from here!
I usually use eye of round, or sirloin tip, but your roast looks fantastic!
I'm sure you got some good roast beef sandwiches from it!

Nice job on that roast.
Add a slice of bread and some gravy and you've got my favorite open faced sandwich.

Point for sure.

I agree, thin slice or it just doesn’t work

Looks good, nice job.

Thanks Chile!

No doubt, the open face sandwich is greatly overlooked by most.

Very nice! It looks fantastic! More and more, I'm thinking I NEED a slicer! And...a vacuum sealer... and a separate freezer... and... and...
