Hey folks! For my family's (Dad's house) big Christmas dinner I am planning on contributing chuck roast slices (and stealing the show... muahahaha!) and am thinking about splitting it up lengthwise so I can get a nice ring all the way around smaller slices. Is there any reason this might not work out? Might splitting it like that make it dry out or something like that? Thanks!

Can a Roast be cut too small for smoking?

It seems to me that it needs to be cooked until done, regardless of size. If you're worried about dryness you could wrap or plop in an aluminum pan and cover (add a little beef broth to either method). Pick a well-marbled chuckie and it shouldn't even be a problem. Break a leg, show-stealer!!!

If you have an end or two that are narrow, watch them carefully because they may cook quicker. You can cut them off as a cooks treat, or slice them for the meal.

* - Favorite Beer - the cold one in my hand (craft beers of all flavors; haven't had a blue yummy in over 6 years) my tastes change with the season so it is difficult to name just a couple. However, I will occasionally have a vanilla porter float in the summer (Empyrean Vanilla Porter w/a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream) as I usually drink stouts & porters in the colder months, pale ales & IPAs in the warmer months. I have to add Not Your Father's Root Beer to beers I use for floats.
* - Booze - I don't really have a favorite, but lean towards single malt Scotch & Irish whiskey
* - Wines - Reds: mainly the heavy stuff mixed in with the occasional pinot noir ( I have yet to meet a malbec I didn't like); Whites: German & Nebraska (hey, I have to support the home team)
* - Favorite Spice outlets - Volcanic Peppers - Bellevue, NE
* - Current butchers: Cure - Ft. Calhoun
It's not so much that it is too small to smoke, at some point it becomes a steak instead of roast. One person's roast is another's steak. Smoke on and keep an eye on those internal temps.
