Quote " You cannot do a traditional low and slow cook for a round roast, a center cut chuck roast and several others. These very lean cuts, which are not naturally tender, are almost pure muscle with very little intra-muscular fat and inter-muscular connective tissue. They come out like shoe leather if cooked low and slow in air. At least un-foiled. Only certain cuts do well with a low and slow."
There are many that hold to the above statement.
USING A KOMODO-KAMADO I FOUND THE STATEMENT IS NOT TRUE!!
I cooked a EYE ROUND ROAST at 135-145F in a Komodo-Kamado. It was pulled at 139 internal.
The pictures tell the story and hopefully will help backyard cooks to set more roast to rest.
Thanks Dennis!!!
Yes, VIRGINIA, there is a tender roast. It exists as certainly as KOMODO-KAMADO and lump charcoal exist, know that they abound and give to your roast its highest beauty, tenderness and taste.
