As I shared in another thread our local Savealot had bottom round advertised for $4.99 a lbs. They just had small trimmed ones in the case so like usual I knocked on the butchers door haha. He let me get whole cryo packed bottom rounds for $3.99 a lbs. Grabbed twi yesterday and one today. View attachment 740888 Grabbed the 14 pounder and trimmed up the fat, silver skin and tendons. Cut off about a 12oz thin piece I'll use for stew meat. View attachment 740889 Mixed up some double strength BtB beef broth with a little Worcestershire and gasp.........liquid smoke. Got out Spitfire to inject. Also cut up onion to go in th pan of broth beneath them in the smoker. View attachment 740890 All injected and then rubbed with Durkee Mesquite seasoning. View attachment 740891 Int the fridge overnight then into the Smokefire today running Lumberjack 100% cherry pellets. Started off at 200F and after an hour bumped to 225F. View attachment 740892 Pulled then at 135F and rested uncovered for about 20 minutes. View attachment 740893View attachment 740895 Par froze then all and then started shaving on my slicer. I like mine shaved / chipped really thin. View attachment 740896View attachment 740897 From the 14 lbs I yielded 7 1/2 lbs shaved, about 12 oz of ends to munch on and 12 oz of stew beef. Not bad for about $56. Set aside a couple lbs for my grandson and I for football Sunday , a lbs for a friend and the rest vacuum packed and into the freezer. I'll probably do another one next week for friends and the freezer. Debating between cold beef , havarti and creamy horseradish or warm with peppers as a French dip in the onion and beef broth. Thanks for looking!

My God that looks yummy. Thin sliced is the way to go. Congratulation on your cook.
