I'm currently up north as I won't be retired until April. We've owned for 2 years now though and get down when we can. I hope to hook up with some fellow smokers when I finally get settled in and get a smoker down there.
I've been smoking a lot of stuff lately, and I did my first Chuck Roast yesterday for Pulled beef.
It came out Great! Almost 7lb and 11 hours start to finish, 9 and a half hours on the smoker.
The flavor was great, texture was great. In a do-over I'd probably keep it at 180 an hour longer. It was not tough, but this chunk of meat is typically pretty stringy so a little bit more breakdown would have been good. Don't get me wrong, it came apart easily, but a little bit more would have been nice. Flavor was fantastic though.
I did a video, and since it will probably only ever get a handful of views, a year from now, I'll know exactly how I did it.
