I am thinking about having a couple of bone-in chuck roasts (7-bone?) custom cut to about 4 or 5 inches in thickness and smoking them. The butcher at my favorite grocery store said he will cut them to any thickness I like and just charge whatever the ones out front are marked - which is $1.99/lb.
Has anyone ever tried this? Any suggestions as to a recommended thickness (as I said above, I was thinking in the 4-5 inch area)? I will probably put two such roasts on the bottom rack, and two 8-10 pound butts on the top rack - and plan on about a 18-20 hour cook.
