OT- burnt ends
- Thread starter tacodawg
- Start date
I’ve tried and failed a couple times. I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong, using too cheap a grade of chuck or both, but I’ve yet to figure smoked chuck roast out. It just always comes out tough with chewy fat rather than melt in your mouth goodness
I’ve had much better success with the point of a brisket, but if you get it right, I’d love to hear the magic formula. I’ve just gone back to the crock pot for a chuck roast

Don’t judge my dirty grates, adds character and flavor (and I can’t seem to find my brush anywhere at the moment.)
I’ve never tried this way of smoking so no telling how it’ll come out.

This video is the one that interested me enough to try it.

Weber is fine if you set up coals well.

Pan of water to temper the direct heat can help as well.
But for poor man's burnt ends I say 17 it and go with pork belly and a sweet sauce at the end.
I like this one: https://blueshog.com/collections/sauce-pints/products/raspberry-chipotle-bbq-sauce-19-oz
Thank me later.

I do small cuts in the center of my Weber all the time. Doing a shoulder the same way tomorrow for the game and I’ve smoked a chuck roast for a ms poboy on mine as well, just did it indirect with a slow n sear.
Desoto did a poor man’s brisket the other day and I commented how chuck is more expensive than brisket right now. How much did you pay for your chuck? CAB chuck is $5.99 and up everywhere I can find it and choice brisket at Sams was $4.49 yesterday.

I think it’s the quality. Have you do CAB beef? I’ve only used CAB chuck for a ms poboy though, and it was as tender as any beef I’ve had.

Clearly I’m bored and ready to go back to work.
I took the roast off at 165 internal temp. Put it in some foil and added Tony’s, little bit of sweet baby rays to offset some hot bbq sauce my BIL got from his hometown, and some better than bouillon. Wrapped it up and stuck it back on the grill. Let’s see what goes
ETA- I’m not an expert on smoking meats. Very amateur. Just bored and my kids with his mom.

Took it out at 200 and cubed it. Soaked it in both BBQ sauces I mentioned before, put a little bit of butter, wrapped it back up and put it back on the grill for 15 minutes.
Finished product I’d give 10/10 for flavor. Not anywhere near as tender as I wanted it to be so clearly I didn’t do something right.
Hope y’all enjoyed my rambling and random **** from this.

Damn. Didn't realize their reach extended that far out. For topping sandwiches, hash, etc. their vinegar-based 1878 sauce can't be beat.
It's got a little bit of heat, & not much sweet. I'm far from an expert, but that type of sauce can't lend itself well basting/cooking with it.
Nice to see a MS boy tasting some of what I grew up with, BBQ wise.

You pulled it too early. The meat won't start breaking down til 203-205. You wouldn't think three degrees would make a difference but it does. I do chucks all the time. Search Malcolm Reeds " How to BBQ Right" Smoked Ms pot roast. You won't regret it.
I like BBQ Sauce nostalgia. I grew up mostly on the east coast on different navy bases, but for Thanksgiving and Easter every year we would go back to see family in Texas. I remember my Dad loading up on Stubb's BBQ sauce everytime to take back to wherever we lived.
It was bottled in old mason jars. By the time we moved to MS in the mid 90's you could finally get it in grocery stores. I don't know if it's the best BBQ sauce anymore, but it's sure was back in the day. Still the only BBQ sauce allowed in my house, traditions and all.

Huh. Next time I drive out that way, I might have to get a bottle or two.
Are those sold at supermarkets or just at his restaurant?

I'm pretty sure it's only at the restaurant. But, I'll try to remember to look for it at local retailers around town.
Thanks!
I’ve not been to that part of Augusta— when I’m there I tend to stay around I-20 or go downtown.
If I’m there overnight and can do it, maybe I’ll drop by but kind of hard to do that when you have family living in the area but not that part of the city.

I do all of my smokes in my webber, using a snake layout. Use lots of wood chunks and hopefully have then soaked when you lay the snake.
