    Pikes Peak Roast??

    Hello All

    We’re hosting Thanksgiving this year and we have to feed ten people (we’re not turkey people). Times being what they are, we’re trying to stay on a budget. I stumbled across a pikes peak roast which I had never heard of. Based on everything I’ve read, it’s pretty lean with not much flavor. Do I have that right?

    Anyone have any experience with these?

    It is below the round and it is lean. I hung mine (somehow) in the Pit Barrel until they got good and brown (basic beef rub), then placed in a foil pan with onions and bell peppers until probe tender. They were goooooood.

      Did you cover the pan? Add any liquid?

    CaliforniaDad MTurney I covered the pan probably added a little water and most likely went to 200+.

        I’ve heard tell of it, but never seen it.

        By my logic, lesser chuck grades might benefit from similar treatment. I’m seeing a lot of whole chuck roll primals around here, but they sure ain’t Prime.

      The roast we had came off a calf we had slaughtered and evidently they didn't feel like throwing it in the grinding bin. I don't think they even get the briskets off of 'em. No worries, the ground meat is AWESOME!!!

        Veal brisket, opportunity missed? I’m not sure that’s even a thing, but I think you should be bothered, and I now have to figure out if there is another exotic brisket type I need to find.
