Smoked Roast Beef Recipe Tips
If you want to save your pellets, you can cook the roast for the second half in your oven at 275°F for the same amount of time.I used mesquite pellets for this, but you can use any pellets that you prefer.Allowing the roast to rest once it has finished fully cooking allows it to reabsorb some of the moisture that cooked out of it, resulting in a moister and more flavorful roast overall. Let that roast rest!You can use the juice to make gravy or au jus, if desired. You can add whatever vegetables you like when making this, but I do suggest leaving the onion and garlic along with those veggies. They add some amazing flavors to this recipe. Carrots, celery, or potatoes would be good additions.You can slice or shred this recipe, whichever you prefer.
Smoked Beef Roast Internal Temperature
The smoked beef roast needs to reach an internal temperature of 200°F. The best way to check the internal temperature of the chuck roast is to use a meat thermometer. Smoked roast beef gets more tender the longer it cooks. Well-marbled chuck roast becomes fall-apart tender after a low and slow cook time. 4 hours is a perfect cook time for tender smoked chuck roast beef.
