Ingredients
2 – Chuck Roasts (3lb average)
½ C– Prime Time - Buttery Beef Rub
Directions
Using a meat tenderizer, pound out the chuck roasts to 2” thickness. Season all sides generously with Prime Time.
Lay the two roasts side by side with the longer edges next to each other, then pull together to overlap the two roasts by 2”.
Starting with the piece that lays on top, roll the meat inward to make the large roast.
Tie together with butcher’s twine.
Place the roast on a rack lined roasting pan.
Allow to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes while the smoker preheats to 500 degrees.
Place the roast on the smoker for 20 minutes and then decrease the temperature down to 300 degrees.
Smoke until the internal temperature of the roast reaches 120 degrees.
*Be sure to take temperature from multiple location on the roast. Since it is rolled together, there can be some inconsistency in density and temperature.
Rest the roast for at least 20 minutes before removing the twine and slicing to serve.
