Smoked Marinated Chuck Roast

I decided to try something a little different by marinating the chuck roast overnight first in a wonderful marinade packed with a little sweet, a little citrus, a little soy and a hint of Worcestershire. Nothing in-your-face strong, this smoked marinated chuck roast was full over flavor through-and-through.

Mixing Bowl

Ingredients

½ cup orange juice
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3-4 pound chuck roast untrimmed

Instructions

Combine all but roast in a bowl.
Place the chuck roast into a large resealable bag or container.
Add the marinade. Toss to coat, seal, and marinade overnight.
Fire up your smoker for smoking at 250 F. Use a medium wood such as hickory.
Remove the beef from the marinade. Shake off the excess and transfer to the smoker.
Smoke until the roast reaches 145 F., about 1 hour.
Transfer the beef to a large piece of foil. Seal up tightly and return to the smoker. Smoke until the temperature reaches 200F, 4-5 hours more.
Remove from the smoker and let rest 15 minutes before slicing or chopping. Add any juices from the foil back into the meat for extra flavor.

Notes

Great on sandwiches, over mashed potatoes or even on nachos!
