    The longer you cook it the more roast taste it get. Remember you only got about the 1st hour to get smoke and the steak flavor out of it ! So 30min smoking, 30 min FLAME BROIL IT 🔥 > as it cooks long more roast beef tastes.. The steak flavor and texture is? between and Ribeye, and a NY STRIP 🥩🥩 God it good 👌 YUM HAPPY EASTER EGG

    @@TheAmericanSmoke 2 things remember, Get it tender b4 it goes out on the grill. I do a baking soda brine over night. Rinse it off good pat dry, then some seasoning like all seasoning, and some beef bouillon. Remember only got a hour to smoke it and flame broil it. All is needed is salt and pepper, when its in side put the other seasonings of your choice as it resting. I also save the juice as it resting to pour back over it, and use the juices to keep freeze it. Cause all your doing is burning and flick off the season on the grill This uses less seasonings.. More flavor on your meat

    Dude you got me crying laughing on the way into work! I made two chucks this past weekend - one turned out good (normal SPG) and one turned out horrible (marinaded). Not sure what went wrong with the marinated one because I changed too many things from what I normally do to figure it out... But this is why we try things on a random Saturday so that when family and friends come over we know what we're doing!

    Great video 😂. I just bought a 2lb chuck roast to try on my new Pit Boss vertical smoker. So far I have done chicken, fish, and a pork butt. The butt should have been done by about 6 pm but I ended up in the kitchen at 10 pm pulling it. I can relate to this video!! After watching this I think I will start the chuck roast at 8am. We may be eating at 3pm but that's ok!

    I've done a couple of chuck roasts too. Love the way they turn out, but they always take longer than I think they should. Last one I did came in around 11 hours. I think there's something about the way the Pit Master distributes heat that makes it take longer to cook than expected. I'll also try your ideas about adding Mayo and butter to the cook. I haven't tried that, but it looks like a great idea.

Now IF the roast is over that? JUST SLICE IT DOWN THE MIDDLE 👉👉 Then you got 2 nice steaks 1 3/4" is good to > But my go to steaks are around 2", to 2 3/4" thick

    Chuck roasts are awesome smoked like a brisket. I do them all the time and when people try them they can't believe how delicious they are. When I do them I have them cut so they are 4 to 5 inches thick because they do cook up to nothing. When cut thick better plan on it taking as long as a brisket but they are worth it.... good job sir love your videos

    I like my vertical pit boss. It's the second pillow smoker I've had. It's different than my charcoal smoker. As far as temperature goes, I use the temperature setting and all, and I'll also hang one inside the smoker as you did. I averaged the two temperatures. I do not trust the pit boss thermostat sitting.

    I cook brisket in many ways, and yes, butcher paper is one of my favorite ways. Butcher paper does help to preserve the bark and foil will soften your bark. Here are a couple videos I have on brisket. kzread.info/dash/bejne/dq6ouMGeZ8bLoaQ.html kzread.info/dash/bejne/iKKCtMhtfJq2Z7Q.html Both of these are good methods. However, you will have to test and try he many methods to decide which is right for you. They all produce different textures. I hope this helps
