Instructions

  1. Preheat your smoker to 250°F (120°C) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. Brush the chuck roast with the dijon mustard all over.
  3. Generously sprinkle the BBQ seasoning over the entire surface of the chuck roast, pressing it into the meat to adhere.
  4. Place the seasoned chuck roast onto the smoker grates and close the lid. Let it smoke for 3-4 hours or until the temperature reaches 200°F (93°C) and the meat is tender.
  5. Carefully remove the roast from the smoker and wrap with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 20 minutes.
  6. Unwrap the roast from the foil and cut the roast into bite-sized cubes, approximately 1 inch in size.
  7. In a foil pan, combine the BBQ sauce and brown sugar. Toss the cubed chuck roast into BBQ mixture until well coated.
  8. Return the coasted cubed roast to the smoker in the foil pan and cook for an hour, or until the meat is caramelized and has a sticky, rich appearance.
  9. Serve the Poor Man’s Burnt Ends as a tasty appetizer or as a main dish alongside your favorite sides or toppings. Enjoy!
