Rolled Roast Question

[duramax170]

Over Christmas I received a BPS.  Smoked pork tenderloin with it and it was great.  Now the request is to smoke a rolled roast about 2-3 pounds for some pulled beef sandwiches.  Through searching I have figured out i need to get it to an IT of 190 then FTC for a couple hours.  The post I found that list a time are usually talking about a lower IT 140-160 ish.

So my question is how long can I expect it to take to get to 190.  Dinner is at 6 so I was thinking at starting at 8AM but I'm not sure if that is right.

Thanks

That should be enough time for a 2 - 3 lb roast.    If it's done early the FTC will hold the temp.    Remember, no peeking ;).   If you're lookin', it ain't cookin'.

If you want pulled beef - take the temp to 180-190.

I've found that the BPS is more sensitive to ambient temps and wind, due to less(no) insulation of the "cabinet"(cover)

I'd say your looking at 5-8 hours on that roast to get to your target temp, you can always FTC it if it gets done early.
