Beef shoulder roast W/ other goodies... 007 Live cook

[Fwismoker]

I'd like to share how I'm doing this boneless beef roast today. We're starting out with a small 3 lb boneless English roast and it'll be a low/slow all day cook so it's ready for a late dinner.

First a little vegetable oil and seasoned with salt,pepper, garlic large grind rub...aka SPG. This will cook over a low fire the whole time with temps in the 225* to 300* range at the most. When the bark gets nice on both sides I'll slide a pan of water in adding vegetables in towards the end. It'll go nekked the whole time but the last third I might set it in the drippings and veggies.


I'm about 3 1/2 hours in now so it's time for some snacks. I had some leftover stuffing for bell peppers i did which is a really good mix...here's the thread.

Anyways I super stuffed some poblanos which have diced poblanos in already and laid on the cheddar cheese heavy and put those on with the beef roast.

So here's where we are so far!


Starting fuel just a little left over, hit it with a torch for 30 seconds @ 10:50 and cooking at 10:54












Only 2 hours in here!







3.5 hours in...peppers on for a short while

I left the seeds in the poblanos :flame: :flame:


Just put the water pan in @ the 4 hour mark for drippings...slow ride the rest of the way.

Looking real good!

Thanks Joe, the peppers are quick and easy but the big prize will be the pull tonight. It's definitely a slow go, only up to maybe 166* @ about 5 hours.

This will be a 9 hour cook at least.... Might crank up the heat when i set it in the veggies.

Looks great! I'm thinking some stuffed poblanos with pepper stout beef and some cheese might be the way to go tomorrow instead of nachos now!

Sorry Ted, it is Top Secret! :spy:

Started tearing it up and cranked up to flat out nuclear temps to finish for a 7:30- 8:00 PM dinner. :hungry:

Nothing wrong with any of that action! I could do some damage to that feast.

It all looks amazing, great post.

 

[effinUker]

omg that looks amazing. i was going to cobble together my own version of this cooker with a smaller drum i have - i think my wife talked me into getting a full 55 gallon & doing it right.

that's some nice looking grub there.

 

[Fwismoker]

Almost done. This is what I really love about cooks like this.

1) Slow cook/smoke ....then switch to nuclear mode

2) combination of direct wood fire grilling, then indirect bath in its own juices

3) Great all wood fire smoke the whole time

4) Just being able to combine so many different methods into one cook and different foods.

I wish I could give you all a serving!!!


Just look at that fire now.. OMG :flame: I opened the intakes to get it going but they've been shut the last hour. The coal base is THICK!!!

 

[Fwismoker]

Served as an open face sandwich, and sides of the stuffed poblano, cheesy mashed potatoes and the roasted carrots.

Man! Those stuffed peppers look outrageous.

Ron that stuffing I saved was goooood in the poblanos. lol

Wow!
Everything looks delicious!

Appreciate it Enrico!
