    Cagmag,
    The last time I did a bone in chuck,I was doing it without knowledge of when to pull. I would say you are getting close to the temp. When I did mine, I let it get to 190 and then I put a fork in it to check it out. I will not pull as nice as pork. I would say you are close. Fork it!!![p]Jerry

    <p />Jwirlwind,[p]Thanks for your help. I forked it and it turned an easy 360.[p]Took off the chuck roasts at 182 degrees. The butts still have a while to go.[p]I got a little over zealous when I bought the meat. With 18.75 lbs. of Boston butts and 9 lbs. of Chuck roast, my grill extender wasn't tall enough to clear the butts. So, it was just basically resting on top of them. Maybe I'll build one w/ firebricks.[p]I'm looking forward to lunch![p]BeefnPork032005.jpg
