Sound off everyone! What's the plan for this weekend?
I'm thinking pizza one night, and trying a smoked chuck roast/poor mans burnt ends for the other.
Both of these will be firsts for me. I think I have a pretty good idea on how to do the pizza based one what ive read here, and my experience with the devil hotbox inside the house, but any advice/input on the chuck roast would be appreciated. I've braised plenty, but this will be the first smoked one. I was planning on treating it exactly like brisket, with just a shorter overall cook time.
This will be my first chuck roast cook on the Akorn. I’ve only cooked steaks and wings on the grill so far, so this will be a learning experience for sure. Any advice or tips are welcome.
I made this last Friday controlling the cook remotely while I was away watching the latest Star Wars movie with my son.
Pecan & hickory smoked pulled beef sandwiches, braised in a dutch oven on my kamado, and served on buns; one topped with homemade horseradish cream sauce and another with barbecue sauce. Simply awesome!

One 3 lb chuck roast
1 large onion
2 large peppers, mild/med/hot whatever
