Phil,
I was planning on doing a chuck roast this weekend, which is pretty similar to the Chusck cuts you did last month.

Seriously though, how do you cook them, and is there a certain way you eat them?

I have done them 165, wrap, 190, cooler. Then used them in fall apart crock pot stew. Would you shred it? Give me some idears. (per Paul Sr. on American Chopper)

[BBQchef33]

After cooking them for 12 or so hours, i cubed trhem and threw them in a pot of chile for an hour. Big chunks of fall apart tender beef....


mmmmmmmmmmmmm-beef.

Bill,
I've done both of these recipes for chuck roast/pot roast. I got a lot of comments when I did the pot roast with veggies. http://mywebpages.comcast.net/ktaylor11/bbq_tips.htm

Just cook them like a brisket - DP marinade, rub, whatever.

I should have known that. :roll:

[willkat98]

shoot. doing sa chusck eye roast and a pulled pork, so I am split between too thread. I stick to chusck in this one.

Changed it up (per ckkphoto, time to experiment on an old stand by)

It was Grub Rub from texas. Rub/tenderizer. in it now 2pm, till tomorrow at 9ish.

I'll let you know

Gonna try moving it way up in the firebox (usually do low.) Read in my Texas Pit Boss that brisket should be done as far from heat as possible. takes much longer, but bark is better to the bite.

Unless its too windy and I can't hold a decent temp, them it will be mid smoke box, which is still lot higher than I normally do them.

[BBQchef33]

yup,t hems the roasts i had... Costco always has big ones in 2 packs. so gonna try it again now that I know what they are. the last ones went into the chile and were awesome after an hour or 2 in there. next one gets prepped like briskets.

I have NEVER smoked a chuck roast. Could someone please recap for me? Smokem like a brisket? Be a great way to prep meat for chile.

[Wayne]

I have been BBQ'n Chuck for years. On the old Weber we use to call the chuck roast a super steak. Just prep it your favorite way and do it. Cause there is nothing to it. A chili powder rub works great, and since it is thin (for a roast) it takes less time to cook thats all. In fact it is a great way to get fast BBQ. I also always use Adolfs and attack the things with a couple of bear claws to make sure all is tender. You can also foil the thing if you want to cook it a little longer and keep it moist and tender. Heck, I did two of these things last weekend. Good stuff.

[willkat98]

I did mine yesterday like a brisket (165, wrap, 190, cooler)

Opened the cooler 2 hours later and I had sprung a leak. 1/4" juice lined the cooler.

Mmmmm. Cooler juice.

[willkat98]

Shredding up some of this for Smoked Beef Enchiladas tonight!!

[Jorge]

Lazy day working on the laptop outside and this thread forced me to go grab some beef. I'll add the chuck a little later. Some boobs, sausage, turds, and ham in now.

Bill, what time is dinner? Serving rice and beans with that? How far are you from the airport?

[willkat98]

1 hour from the airport.

And we're thinking of taking Texashaze Pork Enchilada recipe and supplanting the pork with Chusck roast.

Looks damn good in the recipe section.

Smoked chicken or turkey is great too. Probably should use a white cheese like Jack though. Also might wnat to use green sauce instead of red.

I'm hoping that we can do some of this kind of stuff at Greg's bash. I think that if I gorge myself on just meat and drink beer, my body will seriously regret it.

Reading this has changed my dinner plans. The boobs will be shredded and I'll use either sour cream sauce, or Jack with a tomatillo sauce and do enchiladas.

BTW Mark, if you remember Chuy's and enjoyed it I have the green chile recipe they use.

[Mark]

Use both sour cream and Jack. I've got a recipe here somewhere. I'll do a search and repost here if I find it.

Sure I know and like Chuy's . Ever see the pepper roaster in back?
Yeah; lets see their recipe. Thanks.

BTW: I also grow my own tomatillo's. Usually produce more than I can pick and/or gice away.

[Mark]

Here it is:

My neighbor has the annual Super Bowl party and this year I made smoked turkey enchiladas.
They turned out great. Here’s how I made them (you will need a pretty big sauté pan):

1. Over medium heat, sauté 3 onions & a few mushrooms (mushrooms optional) in olive oil.
2. Add about 1/3 cup of milk, a pinch of cumin, 1 tsp. garlic powder and 1 tsp. pepper powder (I used my own smoke poblano powder) and continue simmering.
3. Over low heat, mix in 1 can of cream of mushroom soup & 1 can cream of chicken soup.
4. Dice one whole smoked turkey breast, add and mix in
5. Mix in about 8 oz. of any shredded white cheese (jack, mozzarella, etc.), stir till melted then turn off heat.
6. Place about a 5” stack of corn tortillas in a covered bowl and put in microwave for 60 seconds (this makes them more pliable).
7. Take a heaping spoonful of the mixture, place on tortilla, roll it up into an enchilada and place in GREASED baking pan, repeating the process until pan(s) are full.
8. Cover each pan with 1 (16 oz can) of green enchilada sauce (I spiced mine up with my own tomatillo salsa).
9. Sprinkle the top with shredded cheese
10. Put in oven at about 375 until cheese is well-melted and beginning to brown.

I also made some casserole/lasagna style by just layering the mixture, sauce and tortillas topped with cheese. Not quite as authentic but quicker. In either case, garnish generously with sour cream and maybe some chopped cilantro, olives, green onions and/or avocado.

Jorge,
Would you mind posting the green chile recipe?

[Jorge]

I should have typed Green Chili Sauce recipe! I do have a green chile recipe, but it's on paper somewhere. I should be able to find it and post within a week or so.

Green Chili Sauce

3 T corn oil
2 Tflour
1 cup chopped onion
2 t minced garlic
2 cups roasted, peeled, seeded and chopped green chilies (I prefer Sandia)
2 cups beef broth (I use Tone's soup base and skip the salt, and then add salt as needed)
1 teaspoon salt

1. In sauce pan, saute onions in corn oil until they begin to brown.
2. Add garlic and cook another 2 minutes.
3. Stir flour in with onions and garlic until slightly thickened.
4. Add chopped chilies, beef broth and salt and mix well. Bring to a boil and simmer 10 to 15 minutes to . The sauce should be thick enough to bind chilies and onions together. Sauce can be refrigerated for three days, or frozen.

[willkat98]

Ended up with fajita of smoked chusck yesterday. Wife did the cooking. added a can of smoked chipotles in adobo sauce.

She just chopped them up.

Farking things were HOT.

Wife and kids don't like that much heat (wasnt overbearing to me). They each had one, I had 3.

Just paid for it on the exit, but I guess the Jap peanuts helped.

[texashaze]

Guess it's too late but IMHO the key to good enchiladas is frying the corn tortillas as I put in my recipie... makes all the difference....

Dip mine in oil as well. Also make sure that I have them covered in sauce or cheese before putting them into the oven wo the ends don't dry out.

[backyardchef]

Good stuff here....I have some shredded chusck in the freezer and was thinking about making chili the week.....maybe make some tacos instead....Hmmmm....

[BBQchef33]

Sheech. It has taken me almost 3 years to thank you for posting that recipe. Thanks bro.

BTW: Did you ever get around to finding and posting the other recipe? :confused:

[SmokeyBear]

mmmmmm

I'll have to do the chuck roast soon with some Emerils Southwest Essence and mesquite wood. :) I may eat it straight with some sauce or put it in chili or just put it in a flour tortilla with some cheese and cook the tortilla on my pizza stone in the BGE.

Why Chile? Are they OK in other parts of South America, too? :roll:

They are just harder to find. You have to go to the butscher to get chusck roasts.

:rolleyes:

OK... I'll go back to my room now...
