Folks,
I need some advise about smoking an eye of round roast. I have a 7.3lb eye of round roast that is about 12" (or so) long and about 4" (or so) in diameter. We usually crock pot our roasts, but I thought I would give it a try in the smoker. The roast appears to have a bit of fat in it, so this sounds good for the smoking as it should help with the dryness.
Can anyone advise me onto how long a smoke this should be? It would seem that it shouldn't take nearly as long as a 7lb Boston Butt, say, (which seems to take me close to 2 hours per lb) since the diameters is much smaller. Again, this roast is long and slender. I think I would like to carry this to at least medium temperature (about 160F).
Thoughts? Thanks in advance!
