Smoked chuck roast for the 4th

[BirdDawg]

1st time trying a chuck roast on the smoker. I'm gonna try and follow Malcolm's procedure.
Any suggestions are welcome.

I took the beef out of refrigerator this am at 9. Seasoned with Worcestershire and alittle soy sauce then rubbed down with Traeger beef rub.
Brought the PB up to 250 and got my Amnps going. Using hickory pellets.
Going to let it go for @3 hours then pan it and put in some beef broth. Shooting for @200 so we can pull/shred it.
Happy 4th!

Watch the salt content moving forward . First one I did got salty on me as the stuff I added cooked down . Looks like you got it . I had one that did not probe tender until the internal temp was 210 . I started using un salted stock for everything , then add salt as needed .

Didn't think about unsalted stock. Next time for sure. Thanks!

Pulled them off PB after almost 3 hours. Internal was between 150-155. Squeezed them both into a half pan. Added 2 cups of beef stock, foiled and into oven at 250. Shooting for IT of 200 or soft probe.

It is as good as it looks. Great smoke flavor. The Traeger beef rub is very savory. The meat is juicy and tender.
Next time I'm definitely going with unsalted stock. This isn't bad but less salt wouldn't hurt.
