One of my best chucks

[sonofabutcher]

I really love Malcom Reed's red wine mushroom sauce and I make it all the time when grilling steaks. After putting the chuck on the 26  for some smoke , I headed to the store to get the usual green bell peppers ,  onions , and jalapeños . On the way to the store  the idea to incorporate the red wine reduction sauce hit me and I went with it. I basically tripled Malcom's recipe to get enough sauce and I let it simmer down till it was thick. Knew the chuck fat would still render when in the Dutch oven and thin it down. Laid the chuck on top of the sauce and topped it off with one onion and mushrooms. Braised till it fork tender and shredded it. The mushrooms soaked up all that flavor and still had nice texture to them. The flavors from the reduction sauce mixed with the beef fat is magical !

Thanks guys , It was fantastic. Lot of great flavors from the smoke , the sweet acidity from the red wine and Worcestershire, and the richness of the fatty chuck .
