Chuck Roll

[David6340]

Picked up a 15 lb Chuck Roll at Sam's today. It was the smallest one they had.  If you havn't tried one you don't know what your missing. It's a nice change from doing Pork Butts all the time. It's the same cut as a Pork Butt, only it's <font color="blue"><b>beef</b></font id="blue">.   You've got to ask the butcher for it as they usually don't have them out. At my Sam's, if you ask for one they always have them in the cooler. Going to use the #1 Texas BBQ Rub on this one. I'll smoke at 225 - 250 and take it to an internal temp of at least 165, then wrap in foil and return to the BS until it reaches 190 - 195 for pulling.

Pulled beef, sounds like a very interesting experiment[:)]
If memory serves, a butt will have a small bone from the blade, so then is this an alternate use to the blade steak area[?]

White, I'm not a butcher, but this is how I would describe a chuck roll.  When i looked at the chuck roll from the side it has a layer of meat on top then a thick fat layer, and in the middle is ( what i think we know as chuck roast). IMO the chuck roll(boneless blade roast) is the whole deal uncut. I think a chuck roast is around 3-5lbs. The <font color="blue">chuck roll </font id="blue">is much larger and is boneless. I think the chuck roll is more moist than the butts. chuck roll= boneless blade roast=chuck roast.
Here is a chart that I found. I think it's from Australia but it shows the chuck roll.
