Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 8 hours
Servings 4 People

Ingredients

  • Chuck Roast 3-4 pounds
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • BBQ Rub
  • 2 Cups Beef Broth
  • BBQ Sauce

Instructions

  • Season the roast liberally with salt and pepper. Or add garlic powder or a bbq rub. Work the seasonings into the chuck roast well and return to refrigerator for an hour or overnight.
  • Prepare your Weber kettle to smoke at 250-275 degrees F.
  • Place chuck roast in the Weber kettle and smoke until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F or a nice bark has developed. (4-5 hours - adjust smoking time as needed.)
  • Place the roast in a foil pan and add a couple of cups of pre-warmed beef broth to the pan. Cover with aluminum foil and return to smoker until the internal temperature reaches 195 degrees F.
  • Remove from smoker and allow the roast to rest for 15-20 minutes. Cut into small cubes, return to foil pan and toss with BBQ sauce and some of the reserved broth.
  • Place the pan on the grill , and cook uncovered for up to 2 more hours. Near the end of the cook, move the pan directly over the coals, and stir occasionally to get crispy edges and caramelize the sauce mixture.
