Bought this at Sam's a few weeks ago and assumed it was a packer(was in the brisket section)
Got several things out to thaw in the fridge the other day and noticed that it said"Beef round bottom-round cov."
Top package.

The sirloin boulder is going to be nugget jerky tomorrow.
Nice looking mystery meat.
Found something that might help:

And there are a cple links off that one.
Thanks Sonny, hard to tell from that what I really have.
Just not sure what IT to finish at.
I'm preheating to 235 then down to 210 for the night smoke, I'm rolling 4 hours of hickory. may smoke a little more in the AM after dumping the pucks and checking things out. planning on uping temp to 225 when I'm awake and finishing at an IT of 160 one one of them and 180 on the other. the briskit will go between 180-190.
That is all subject to change, depending on my mood :)
dont know what type of meat that is, sounds like you do have aplan

Better keep an eye on it. It may cook faster than you think. (not the brisket)
Well I'm just gonna wait to see the finished mystery meat...lol

all ready for the smoker, one of the hunks I rinsed the maranade off of and slathered with jans rub and cym. the other is just maranade and the brisket is maranade and 1/2 briskit rub. I'm not, but give me a half hour. ;D

in the smoker at 210 for the unsupervised sleep smoke(trying to pick a pellet smoker,but that's another post)
Those mystery chunks were sure tough to put the probe in, this may be a longer cook than you or I thought Sonny.
Hope the fan works as anticipated for convection.

in hindsight I have to say you are right, its a little dry, but tender, thought about boating it but I like the bark.
here's the other two pieces out of ftc.
going to cool the briskit and vac pac since my beef guy had to take his dad to rochester mn for lukemia treatment.
(http://i1206.photobucket.com/albums/bb448/grnhs/P1013549.jpg) oh ya the other picsw from the first one I pulled out, pulled it at 165
second one at 170 and briskit at180

It still looks mighty good to me.
ok, now that Faith Hill has sang I can finish this ;D
(http://i1206.photobucket.com/albums/bb448/grnhs/P1013550.jpg)
it eats pretty good
The one with the jans rub and cym that was pulled out at 170 is delish.
I'll have to let you know later about the briskit
That looks goooooooooooooooooooood!
I'm so frickn hungry right about now I almost ate my screen.
