Smoker at 250. Holy gospel rub. Insert probe. Get it 160. Put in a foil pan and wrapped until 200.

It looks pretty but both times have been completely dry. What am I doing wrong?

    1. Make sure the Chuck has plenty of marbling.  

    2. Wrap with beef tallow.

    Add some beef broth when wrapping.

    Not worth it IMHO. Flavor and texture wrong.

    If you like bbqd chuck, fine… But it is not a substitute for brisket.
