brisket

🥗Healthier: chicken thighs

💰Cheaper: pork shoulder

Pork shoulder is more affordable and still provides a rich flavor.

barbecue sauce

🥗Healthier: homemade barbecue sauce

💰Cheaper: ketchup + vinegar

Ketchup and vinegar can create a quick, budget-friendly alternative.

Select a chuck roast instead of brisket for affordability and flavor.

Trim any excess fat from the chuck roast if necessary.

Prepare a seasoning mix with coarse ground black pepper, sea salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, chili powder, and brown sugar.

Take the chuck roast out of the refrigerator 45 minutes before seasoning.

Sprinkle the seasoning mix evenly over the chuck roast, ensuring full coverage.

Place the seasoned chuck roast on a wire rack for airflow during smoking.

Prepare the Hasty Bake Legacy Grill for indirect cooking by adding hardwood lump charcoal and lighting it until white hot.

Rake the coals to one end of the grill and add hickory and cherry wood for smoking flavor.

Close the lid and set the target cooking temperature to 275°F.

Cook the chuck roast for 1.5 to 2 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 170°F, using a meat thermometer for accuracy.

Remove the chuck roast from the grill and let it rest before cubing it into pieces for burnt ends.
