Ingredients

  • chuck roast - approximately 2-3 lbs.
  • 6 red potatoes
  • 2 large stalks celery
  • 2 cups baby carrots
  • 1 8 oz container whole mushrooms
  • 2 medium onions
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 sprig rosemary
  • 3 sprigs thyme
  • 4 cups beef stock

Instructions

  • Set up your charcoal grill like a smoker. Watch this video to see how to set it up - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENEGidyAEPk
  • Coat your pot roast with your favorite seasoning. Make sure you get all the sides. I used Kinder's Buttery Steakhouse seasoning and some fresh cracked pepper.
  • Once your grill reaches about 250 degrees, put your pot roast on the grill grates, as far away from the charcoal as you can. Smoke for about 1.5 to 2 hours at 250 degrees.
  • While your pot roast is smoking, cut vegetables into large chunks. Try to cut all the vegetables about the same size so they cook evenly.
  • After your roast has been smoking on the grill for about 1.5 to 2 hours, transfer it to a large grill-safe pot or skillet. Add cut veggies, and all other ingredients including garlic, tomato paste, rosemary, thyme, and beef stock.
  • Cover the entire pot with aluminum foil. Tip - If you don't want your pot roast broth to take on too much smoke flavor and turn bitter, be sure to cover the pot tightly with foil.
  • Raise the temperature of your charcoal grill to about 300 degrees. Cook your pot roast for an additional 2 to 3 hours, or until done.
