Jeff's Rub and chuck roast

[packplantpath]

I've just bought Jeff's rub, but wouldn't you know it all I have to smoke tomorrow are 2 chucks. How does it go on a chuck? Pretty good. Course, just found out I'm out of paprika too. Dang it!!


The wife wants to make a saucy pulled beef. Ketchup base. Any ideas? She has a recipe that is ok, but if anybody has any additions, I've listed it below.

1/2 c ketchup
3/4 tbsp paprika
1/2 c b. sugar
3tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1tsp salt
1tsp pepper
1tbsp tex pete
1tsp mustard powder
1/2 c water
8 tbsp lemon juice
4 tbsp of juice from beef roast (in this case smoker drippings

)


Anybody think Jeff's Rub will not go well as a base for the meat with this sauce?

The rub will go fine. apply it now and wrap it untill tomorrow. Since I make french dips with chucks, I don't use sauce.

I have yet to figure out why anyone would want to pull a chuck?
It would seem it was that some of the northern folk have trouble locating brisket.

LOL I do have two chucks, so I suppose I could pull one and slice the other. Doesnt' matter, I hope I can get the camera out and working for Q-view.

Might make some good burnt ends!

 

[flash]

I haven't figured it out either

Tasted good to me. I do have some horse meat I could sell you.

I pull chucks all the time. More forgiving than brisket and usually cheaper. Usually do 4 at once and pull some and slice some. Also SmokieOkie style and chucks work fantastic.

Well, I just put them on. Later than ususal. Didn't get them on until 9:30. Fortunately, they are for tomorrow, so I don't care when they finish.

I never have been given any ideas or modifications for the sauce I posted in the first post. The wife wants our superbowl go-ers to have pulled chuck sammies. What we in North Carolina call BBQ beef. If anybody has sauce suggestions shoot them to me.

This is only my second (well 2nd and 3rd chuck. Hope they go well.
