Chuck Eye Roast

[Baltimorelger]

Did a grocery delivery and instead of an eye round (had planned to make jerky) received a Chuck Eye Roast. The look looks pretty awesome so not upset about the mistake. Any suggestions for recipes or temps/times? I am thinking I can smoke it to 135 and then slice it for sandwiches, but wanted other's thoughts as never cooked one before.

That's always a good choice. Could also do a smoked pot roast.

Have I read somewhere that the chuck eye is off the end of a prime rib roast? It seems my neighbor told me it was a wonderful cut of beef well worth the money.

Yeah I'd say that was a decent mistake there. As far as I remember Skip is right, it's the narrower end of the rib primal up toward the chuck. Probably would be good at medium rare, especially SVQed, or pot roast/braised.

I like it for pulled beef. Cook like a brisket, maybe 9 hours. The gourmet Q treatment: https://dizzypigbbq.com/recipe/clays-pulled-beef/
