So i gave this recipe from
Co4ch D4ve
a whirl and man did it deliver. The one alteration i made to the rub was excluding ground jalapeno and added a dash of smoked paprika, due to what i had on hand.
As he says, rub will make more than you need so i saved it for another day.
Rubbed and ready to sot in fridge. I kept it on the lighter side incase it was too spicey for wife and kids. (End result was not spicey at all so i can up my peppers next time)
Smoked @250 in my CampChef STX for 3 hours until it hit 152.
Roasting liquid prepped and into 300 degree oven
It cooked way faster than I anticipated and rocketed to 205 in an hour during roast, however the chuck was not buttery probe tender. I left it in for 45 more min at 225. I ended up removing it , wrapping and rest for 1 hour while prepping remainder of meal. It pulled ok but not as easily as i wanted so i think i could have cooked it longer. Flavor was amazing! Some of the best tacos i have ever made. So hungry i forgot my plated shot so here is just the pulled beef. I strained the roasting juice and poured over the shred and MAN it was gooood! All credit to Co4ch D4ve. This is a keeper and thank you!
