    Roast Beef (again) QVIEW

    A while back I did a huge roast smoke for sliced roast beef, I scaled it back a little this time but i figured I'd show it anyways.  For anyone who hasnt tried a roast yet, it really is a must. 9.5lb top round with a basic beef rub overnight, then smoked at 215 for about 4hours until 140...

    straight into the fridge with a layer of plastic wrap tig htly over it, followed by tin foil on top of the plastic wrap.  Seems like if I go straight into the cold from the smoker minimal amounts of juices have a chance to escape.

    I always go straight to the fridge after the smoke and let it go overnight, helps reduce the juice lost before slicing. Im sure freezing for a short time would also work, but being cold definetly helps.   and i have absolutely been sneaking some samples, have to make sure it tastes good before...

    Thanks guys, unfortunately the party isn't until tonight so I cant eat too much until later! I should also mention that the 75$ i picked up a chefs choice slicer for might be the second best investment ive made other than the smoker.  Being able to uniformly slice this thin is the best.
