Beef Recipes
Beef Roast
Set cooking temp to 225 °F
Ingredients:
• 3-5 lb beef roast
• Kosher salt
• Fresh cracked pepper
Directions:
Prepare a 3-5 lb beef roast for cooking. Season outside with salt and pepper or
a Creole rub for added spice. Place beef roast on bottom rack in the center of
smoking chamber. Cook beef until the internal temperature reaches a minimum
of 145˚F.
Large cuts of meat can typically be removed a few degrees prior to the desired
internal temperature. When internal temp reaches your target temperature,
remove and place on plate or tray and cover with aluminum foil. Allow the roast
to rest for 10-20 minutes while the internal temperature continues to rise. Always
check the internal temperature before serving to insure it has reached desired
temperature. Slice and enjoy!
