Chuck roll question(s)
My local grocery store had chuck rolls on sale so naturally I had to pick up a couple of them. I've read some threads here already but I still have a couple questions:
1. Will a 20# chuck roll fit on a Large grate? Or will I have to trim it?
2. Assuming a 300 deg dome temp, how long might you expect it to take? I know every cook is different - Just looking to ballpark it. Will I be close with 12 hours?
Thanks!

I have done up to 30# Chuck Roll on mine- I never trim and do inject with a @RRP type of Aus Joues..12 Hours is doable if it is a choice, the select run a little slower......I run mine to over 200 to Pull....One note that Roll is So Tall make sure your Dome Thermo is Far away enough from the protein or you will get a false reading..If Possible I measure Grate Temp though there may be No Grate Area with that large of a cut..........I usually plan on 20 hours start to finish including cooler/oven rest timeVisalia, Ca @lkapigian

Do you mix anything with it when you pull it?
For instance, I mix my pulled pork with a very light home made NC Cider sauce. You can't even see it on the meat, but the cider vinegar seems to punch up the flavor a bit.
Is there any juice, salt, liquid, spice that helps with the beef (short of mixing it all with BBQ sauce which I'm not a fan of.)

What is a chuck roll? Is that a chuck roast? Thought I should ask since this post has "forced" me to order one from my local Sam's Club and I pick it up on Friday.Joe - I'm a reformed gasser-holic aka 4Runner Columbia, SC Wonderful BGE Resource Site: http://www.nakedwhiz.com/ceramicfaq.htm and http://www.nibblemethis.com/ and http://playingwithfireandsmoke.blogspot.com/2006/02/recipes.html

My question I poorely phrased. How do I get one? I wonder if what I ordered from Sam’s is it. Oh well, I’m going to smoke the hell out of it and hope for the best.Joe - I'm a reformed gasser-holic aka 4Runner Columbia, SC Wonderful BGE Resource Site: http://www.nakedwhiz.com/ceramicfaq.htm and http://www.nibblemethis.com/ and http://playingwithfireandsmoke.blogspot.com/2006/02/recipes.html

I'm curious about Chuck Rolls. I've seen them at some local stores but never tried one. Some people use them for pulled beef, but is it possible to just slice it like a brisket? Is part of it better served slice and other parts better pulled?
I've also heard about chuck clods, but don't know how they differ from a roll. I didn't see the clod on that meat cut chart.

I had hoped someone would reply to my post above about a Chuck Roll. I was at BJs yesterday and they had an 18 pound one for $4.00/pound. Is that around the usual price?

@lkapigian,
Thanks for the info. The one at BJs (they were USDA Choice) seemed a little expensive so I guess I'll wait until I get to Restaurant Depot to see what they are charging.

Looking forward to any photos from recent cooks. I've added Chuck Roll to my todo list - sounds like a nice one to try.

Very rich and very delicious. Boys said I should do this instead of brisket from now on. Full size tin.
