Is this going to be good to smoke and can someone give me process to follow?
like what temp to cook it to, foil or no foil ...that sort of thing. It doesn't look like many ppl smoke this type of cut.

Sounds to me like you would cook it just like a chuck roast. Smoke until 165, then foil with some liquid and return to smoker until IT is 205, then pull it for BBQ sammies.
This might be a good time to use the search feature while your waiting for a better answer.

"That is a relatively lean cut, so probably not the best for pulling. It literally comes right off the top of the shoulder blade. Best cooking with a hot, dry method. Can look a little like a eye of round, but not as lean or tender. If smoking, smoke to med rare Internal Temp for best results IMHO."
Hope this helps.

It should be roasted with moisture to break down the connective tissue; either by foiling at some point with moisture added (braising) or put in the smoker in a pan with some liquid of your choice (water, beer, Jack... lol!) and cook to 200° - 205° for pulling. It should fall apart and be like any pot roast and be delicious! (..never hurts to add some of my favorite... horseradish!).

Its funny how someone will say " This is one for Pops" and BAM there he is have you got a button that some presses to alert you to answer a question.....lol
No, I just troll the new messages every day and look for ways I can be of help. I also just posted my email addresses so if someone is looking for help you can get a hold of me to let me know. I am just thankful to have the opportunity to pass on some knowledge while I am here if it will benefit others in areas I am skilled in; after two strokes you realize how mortal you are and how quick your skills can be taken from you, like typing, cutting, communicating, etc. It's good to be vertical, lol!

Anyway I didn't get a response here on time so I cooked it to 145F and it didn't turn out very good.
Guess I should have put some more thought/research into before trying something new lol
I think it would have been much better cooking to 200 like you guys suggested.
thx

Probably because we don't go by time, but by internal temps. I have had some chucks take from 4 to just over 6 hours. Depends on which chuck and how thick. Definitely have to get into the 200º area if you want to pull it. 180º or so to slice it.
