Chuck Roasts on the Hunsaker for a batch of Barbacoa.

[KevinJ]

Seasoned the roasts liberally with Q-Salt and BPS Cuckoo Racha, using Cowboy Lump and Hickory chunks for smoke. Cooking at 300 until IT hits 165-170 then panned, covered and up the cook temp to 350 until the roasts are fork tender, they'll get shredded and cooked uncovered to cooked down. Will give them a check in about 3hrs and see where they're at.

I also have a chuckie on for Barbacoa, great minds think alike.

I was too lazy to get beef cheeks, they're not everywhere around here.

 

[KevinJ]

3hrs in smaller roast temped at 172, wife said she would like to eat later than originally planned so I'm going to let the drum ride at 300 and will check the roasts in a couple of hours.

Just over 5hrs in nice and tender, shredded and back on drum to let the liquid cook down.

Very interested in this. Would you mind telling us what is in the braising liquid?

I started with 7lbs of Chuck Roast so adjust accordingly.

8 cloves of garlic minced
3 chipotles in adobo sauce, finely chopped (if you like more heat add more or less add less)
1 red onion chopped
1/2 cup of lime juice
2 cups of beef broth
4 table spoons of apple cider vinegar
6 bay leaves
2 table spoons of cumin
2 table spoons of oregano
2 teaspoons of kosher salt
2 teaspoons of course black pepper
1/2 teaspoon of ground cloves

Looks great! I think I still have a package of beef cheeks in the freezer. Might pull them out for tomorrow.

My wife won't eat beef cheeks. :shocked:

Unfortunately for me because I really like them.
