Prepare ingredients as directed. For best results, use a sharp knife to trim excessive fat before cutting meat into cubes.
Pre-heat smoker to 250 degrees F.
Toss the chuck roast cubes in the Kansas City Dry Rub rub making sure to coat all sides of the meat.
Place the chuck roast cubes on the smoker rack leaving space between the cubes. Smoke for 2 hours.
In a bowl or cup, combine the Kansas City Style Homemade Old Fashioned Molasses BBQ Sauce sauce with the beer.
Turn the smoker up to 275 F degrees.
While the smoker temperature is increasing, remove the chuck roast cubes from the smoker and place them in the foil pan. Then pour the barbeque sauce and beer mixture over the cubes and toss to coat all sides of the meat.
Cover the pan tightly with foil and place the meat back in smoker until it is tender, approximately 2 – 3 hours.
Remove the pan from the smoker and carefully pull back the foil … the steam will be hot so make sure you don’t burn yourself. It is a good idea to wear gloves for this. Serve hot.
