Here we go did my first brisket over the 4th holiday turned out great. Have another brisket but it's rather large so we'll just leave that in the freezer for a rainy day. Anyways made steaks Sunday for dinner noticed I was out so got to doing inventory on my freezer. Noticed I had 9 chuck roasts a couple 3 lbsers the rest around 5 lb been seeing all these burnt ends so decided I'd give her a go.
Just got em out of the fridge after thawing coated in w sauce rubbed down with spog plus a little chilli powder for good measure back into the fridge till tomorrow morning. Ones to be more like a brisket other be burnt ends wish me luck, I'll keep you posted.

I haven't done pulled beef yet outside of ribs an pulled pork most of my smoking is cured meats hams bacons snack sticks etc new job equals more time an money for smoking.
 
Looking good so far. I don't know about the "poor man's" part though, I don't usually see chuck on sale as cheap as I do brisket lately.
