re: Chuck roast pastrami

Wrong.
It’s not wrong. I’ve smoked them. I’ve longed for the fat to break down and not dry out, and produce an outcome like brisket. It just doesn’t happen. Flavor wise it’s not far off. You get good beef flavor. But you need to wrap in foil, introduce some liquid and shoot for pulled beef to get the most out of a “smoked chuck roast”. If you’re going to do that you might as well just braise it. Smoke one and be honest with yourself. You’ll agree with me.

I’ve smoked them before and I believe it would be just fine for pastrami. He’s not trying to compete in a cookoff, he’s making pastrami for fun in his backyard. I see no problem with it. No, it’s not brisket...but it’s pastrami that you put on a sandwich - it’s fine.

I noticed your posts always seem to tear down other posters for trying different things or doing them differently from the way you've been trained or whatever. You think you're being eloquent and helpful but you come off as a douche. Try posting something positive about other people's food.

edit, here is a regular one I did recently. I too, smoke chuck quite a bit as we have a small family and don't need to smoke a larger brisket

That doesn’t make it a poor meat for smoking. It makes it different from brisket. It’s still delicious.

I guess me agreeing with the OP and saying that cooking pastrami with a cut of meat other than brisket is fine and I see no problem with it is an example of me tearing down posters for trying different things? Keep on hating bro.

I am doing a pastrami turkey breast and beef cheeks next

Everyone here can now breathe a sigh of relief knowing you don't have a problem with the OP's food.

Seems like you're the only one antagonizing on here. We're talking pastrami on the food board. You're talking oral sex.

That’s what I’m talking about. Behind the beautiful arrangement and filters there’s a dry grainy piece of beef. I would not pick the defense of smoked chuck roast to be a hill I would die on. As do many shitty bbq joints that offer “beef” instead of brisket. But you do you.

it wasn't dry at all.
There are a ton of people that do chuck.
You appear to just be an idiot trolling this thread. That's fine.

Sounds like you could learn how to do it from Toof, s I need you've been doing it wrong
Posted on 1/27/21 at 6:34 pm to t00f
Looks delicious to me. Ignore the expert food critics.

I have been using this thermometer and it is legit. I’m using it in a Otto Wilde cooker which gets to over 1500 degrees and it works perfectly. Heck of a fine piece of equipment so far!

This looks great, might try and do this in a week or two.
Posted on 2/1/21 at 6:31 am to t00f
This looked so good that I’m trying it this weekend. I’m going to use the same brine/rub mixes. Did you do anything to rinse or soak the roast after brining it? I’ve heard mixed answers about that.

I rinsed after the 5 day brine.
