Equipment

Ingredients

  • 3 lb Chuck Roast
  • 2 tbsp Montreal Steak Seasoning or preferred rub
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce optional

Instructions

  • Apply Worcestershire sauce over the chuck roast evenly, approximately 1 tablespoon.
  • Apply Montreal steak seasoning (or preferred rub) generously. Make sure to apply the rub to the sides of the roast as well.
  • Allow to rest for at least 1 hour before smoking.
  • Preheat the smoker to 250 degrees. Use your favorite wood. For us, and this cook, we use a mixture of hickory and cherry.
  • Place the chuck roast(s) onto the grill and close the smoker.
  • Smoke the chuck roast until the internal temperature reaches between 155 to 160 degrees Fahrenheit, approximately 3 hours.
  • Remove from the smoker. Place the meat onto a couple of large pieces of aluminum foil. Add a few tablespoons of butter and wrap the roasts tightly with the aluminum foil.
  • Place the chuck roast(s) back onto the smoker and continue to cook until the internal temperature hits about 205, approximately 2 hours.
  • Remove the chuck roast(s) from the smoker and allow to rest for at least an hour to ninety minutes.
  • Using your hands or some serving forks, break up the smoked chuck roast into the desired size of meat pieces and serve with your favorite sides.

Notes

Remember to cook to temperature, not time. 
If you have leftovers, allow the meat to come down to room temperature. Store in an air-tight container and refrigerate for up to three days.
