Set up your charcoal grill like a smoker. Watch this video to see how to set it up -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENEGidyAEPkCoat 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.
