Beef Round - Smoke then Roast ?

[FLBentRider]

I have a Bottom round roast. Would it work to apply 2 hours of smoke @ 200, then refrigerate overnight, then roast in the convection oven. I am doing this in order to adjust the serving time, and to roast at a higher temp than my OBS can generate - 325 or so.

My question is, do I still take it to the same internal temp (in this case 140) , or does that get "adjusted" due to the earlier cooking during the smoking process ?

My instincts tell me that 140 is 140, just cook it....
