I just bought ba 3 pound Chuck roast, rubbed it with kosher salt , course black pepper like I don't my brisket, just not as thick. Then I smoked it to 170 degrees then wrapped in butcher papper untill 185 degrees. Then I pulled it from the smoker, let it rest 30 minutes. Then I cubed it up and put on honey and bbq sauce. Then into a oven at 350 untill it was nice and carmalmelized like I like it. Oh yeah the smoker was set to 225.
