Surprised by beef shoulder roast

Ok...

USDA Select Beef shoulder roast on sale for $1.49/lb @ HEB (local supermarket)...I grab several packages to "feel test", and one feels super tender. I figure, what the hell...worse comes to worst, it'll satisfy pepper stout beef.

Fast forward to a Thursday night that I was down on time: only 3 hours to make dinner? FML

Rotisserie?

Salt, pepper and paprika...vacuum seal and shove in the fridge.

What else do I have? Baked beans? Ugh!

I can make French bread (never have before, but I have the ingredients).

Start the bread process (by the way, screw kneading for 10 minutes...I'm too old and out of shape for that).

Fire up the coals, add pecan wood, skewer the roast, start the cook. Cook for 1.5 hours at 375...pulled at 140 (next time will pull at 135 and try to keep the cook around 325, because I like my beef more rare).

Here are the results...turned out exponentially better than I expected; tender, moist, delicious.

I agree with you about the doneness, although like you, I''d jump right on it ! ! !
