2 hours of mesquite, 4 hours total in the smoker

Then 1 hour in the BE to crisp things up a bit

Sautaed onion, garlic, jalapenos in butter, then 6 cups beef broth, salt, pepper, hot sauce, cubed up red taters and some baby carrots its time for a bath

And after a couple of hours in the hot tub!

I'm going to have to give this one a try too.   Pretty soon I'm going to need a three ring binder for my to do list.

Well done.

Isn't a pot roast too big to place on a 2 gig flash drive?  Where will you put the potatoes?

Although somewhat more difficult with roasts over 5 pounds, the task may be readily accomplished as follows:

     1.  Stand the flash drive on its end (might require some "squaring off" of the casing). 
     2.  Spear the potato (with the USB port) to rest atop it, thus creating a (somewhat lumpy) platform.
     3.  Carefully balance the roast on the potato.  If the meat "droops" over the sides, you can fold any loose flaps toward the top (and staple together if necessary). 
     4.  Additional veggies can be affixed to the roast with toothpicks.  Be careful to symmetrically distribute any additional weight to maintain equilibrium.
     5.  Use of chopsticks to prop up the sides of the roast or fishing line to suspend it from the ceiling are not recommended as they make the completed work appear "amateurish."

If the method described above doesn't work for you, the easiest alternative is to buy a bigger flash drive (In the world of the unbalanced, size does matter). 

Although there are alternative solutions they should only be performed by trained and experienced professionals operating on a closed track with the proper safety equipment.

What is this other wood you speak of???  ;D  I would try to find one with the flat and point still intact, otherwise the flat is the leaner of the two and makes for some excellent slices, the point which will slice up fine I like to use it for chopped sandwichs!

Unlike some other first experiences with meat, the relatively uniform thickness of flats may make them your best bet.

Absolutely beautiful pot roast. Do you think the searing from the Big Easy made some nice bark or really sealed some juices?
