Chuck Roll Suggestions...............

Haven't seen this type of meat talked about here so I thought I'd
ask since I was planning to cook one on Saturday. At 20 1/2 pounds I want to make sure I'm prepared. So far, all I have is to cook it till it reaches an internal temp between 160-170 degrees. At that point wrap the meat in foil and cook till it reaches 200 degrees. I guess I can push up the cooker heat to 300 at that point as I would for a Bostom Butt. I was hoping to pull it after two hours in a cooler.[p]Any help will be appreciated,
Howard

  • You are on track. I have done lots of these. I would use some rub or something. When you foil it I usually like to dump some spicy sauce over the roll when you wrap it. [p]I have always cooked these things on WSM's. I had to foil to prevent the outside barking up to much and losing lots of good stuff. Not sure it is necessary in a ceramic cooker. But heck, take it to 195-200, it will be falling apart and wonderful no matter what you do with it. Plan on about 1 1/2 hours per pound at 225.
