Title: Pulled Beef on the Elite
Post by: Bar-B-Lew on March 10, 2018, 06:32:03 PM
15# of chuck roast put on the Elite set to 275°...used two different McCormick's rubs - Brazil and some KCBS beef rub

Smoked for 3.5 hours with Camp Chef cherry pellets...IT was 160°-170° on all 4 of them.  Put in a pan with 5 beers and covered.  Put in oven at 350°

3.5-4.0 hours in the oven and it was falling apart...pulled with two forks in less than 5 minutes

Winn Dixie had their choice boneless chuck roast on sale for $2.99 a pound.  We will be doing this in the near future.  Did you do enough beer to completely cover the meat?

I put enough beer in the pan to cover the beef before covering and continuing cooking until it falls apart.

Big question.

Cheap, light or whatever type of beer???

I think something stronger tasting than a light beer.  I recently cleaned out my fridge of beers that I didn't like or had been in there for quite some time.  I used 5 of them in my this batch - Yuengling, Flying Dog jalapeno, Flying Dog salt n pepper.  They worked great in the beef even though I didn't like them as a beer drinker, and I have probably had 400-500 different beers in the last 5-6 years.

That beef looks so good I am going to try making it.  I never thought to smoke it in beer and we certainly have our share of craft breweries here in Richmond.

No, you smoke it uncovered on the grill grate until it hits 160° with the grill set at 250°-275° (takes about 3-4 hours).  You then put it in a pan, pour the beer in to cover the meat, cover the pan, and cook at 350° until the meat falls apart.  This could take about 4 hours in the pan.
