Poor man brisket and pork belly burnt ends

[Back9Q]

Decided work from home today and clean out garage and do yard work. Cant really do that without firing up the offset

Put on 2 chuck roasts for pulled meat sammies and cubed up a pork belly for some candy burnt ends

Rolling 275-300 with oak and cherry wood. Chuckies at 160IT. Pork belly go on in few hours

Yes...I like your plan. The chucks look great.

Nothing "Poor Man" about Chuck Roasts either in actual costs or end results. Where I am they run about $2.00/ lb more than Brisket. Only difference is the final $$$ spent on a couple of decent sized Chuck Roasts won't be as much as a typical Packer Brisket.......you also don't have 5-6# of trimmings, at about $4/lb, to toss or render in to Tallow with Chuck Roasts either.

My Costco has been stocking really nice Chuck Roasts lately, so I think that is the next large cuts of Beef I'll smoke too.

Costco is where I got these. Well marbled. 7# total for around $30. Will have enough leftovers for the fam for tomorrow lunch and dinner. Better than $80 on brisket with small group people
