Ingredients
  

  • 2 ½ lb Beef Chuck Roast boneless
  • 2 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 2 tablespoon Water

Dry Rub:

  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Chili Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Dry Mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Brown Sugar
  • ½ teaspoon Cayenne Powder

Instructions
 

  • Count on the smoking process to take about 90-120 minutes per pound of meat.
  • To begin, dry beef with paper towels. Then, completely coat with dry rub. Cover and transfer to refrigerator overnight(optional).
  • Pull seasoned beef out of the fridge at least 30 minutes before smoking.
  • Fill spray bottle with Worcestershire and water blend.
  • Prepare your smoker with pellets and set the temperature to 225 degrees. We are using a pellet blend of oak, hickory, maple and cherry. But, any of these will do.
  • Place the beef roast in the center of the grill and stick the temperature probe directly in the center of the meat. Once a bark is beginning to form on the beef, spray with 50/50 Worcestershire and water blend every hour. Continue to smoke until the meat reaches an internal temp of 160 degrees.
  • Once the beef reaches 160 degrees internally, remove beef from the smoker and turn the smoker up to 250 degrees. Wrap beef tightly in a large piece of butcher paper or aluminum foil and transfer back to your smoker. Continue to smoke until the beef reaches an internal temperature of 200-203 degrees.
  • Finally, once the beef has reached an internal temperature of 200-203 degrees, remove from the smoker. Transfer to an empty cooler or wrap in a clean towel. Doing so will allow the meat to slowly cool down while maintaining tenderness. This will take about an hour.
  • Slice beef roast along against the grain or pull apart with tongs or two forks. Serve pulled beef on a sandwich or with your favorite side dishes. Enjoy!
