My Last Cook - Smoked Pulled Chuck

July 17, 2016, 12:52 PM

Hey all,

I cooked some smoked pulled chuck this weekend! I used the process from David Parrish : http://www.abcbarbecue.com/pulled-beef-chuck-roast

I started with 2 2.75lb roasts, salted the night before. 1.5tsp kosher on each:

The next morning, I setup my Weber Genesis for indirect cooking at ~250:

I rubbed each roast with 1TBL coarse black pepper + 1tsp garlic powder rub:

Next I cooked them for ~3 hours rotating/flipping 1/2 way through. I used oak pellets in a tube and some oak chips in a smoke box too.

After around 5 hours, the internal temp reached 180:

I wrapped them and cooked them another 1.5 hours until the IT was 211 (a little too long). They were very tender at this point so I called them done!

Rested them 1.5 hours in a FC, and pulled one for dinner!!!!!

Chow time!

Looks great, nice job. Tonight I am doing a 5 lb chuck roast. Taking forever though. Thought I'd have this done in around 7 hours and no such luck.

Do I lose my Pit privileges if I admit I've never eaten or attempted to cook pulled beef?

Nice cook!
