After 2 and a half hours I took the Taters off and snapped this of the progress so far:

N8man how long did the chuckie take on the drum?
I'm thinking of cooking one Sunday and the drum will be cooker of choice and I haven't cooked a chuck on it yet.
Everything looked great. :cool:

To reach 180* the Chuck was on for 5.5 hours. Side Temp Gauge read 200* so I was cooking around 250* I plan on slicing this Chuck and I feel 180* is
a good temp for that. If you want to pull the Chuck like a Butt instead, you will have to take it up to and perhaps beyond 200-205* until a probe will enter it like Butter. I didn't foil this one, but you may want to double foil at 160* with some beef broth and continue the cook from there. Good Luck with your cook Sunday.
