Ingredients

1 3-4 pound chuck roast
2 tablespoons avocado oil
1/4 cup strong brewed coffee cooled
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat the smoker to 225°F. Soak the wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes before using.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, smoked paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, coriander, salt, and black pepper to create a dry rub.
Trim any excess fat from the chuck roast, leaving a thin layer for flavor.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the avocado oil, brewed coffee, and apple cider vinegar. Brush this mixture all over the chuck roast.
Sprinkle the dry rub evenly over the chuck roast, pressing it into the meat to ensure it adheres well.
Place the chuck roast in the smoker and add the soaked wood chips to the smoker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Smoke the chuck roast for 6-8 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 195-205°F. The meat should be tender and easily pull apart with a fork.
Remove the smoked chuck roast from the smoker and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing or shredding.

Notes

Use a bold, strong coffee to ensure the flavor comes through in the finished dish.

If you want to keep the chuck roast from getting too dark and crusty on the outside, try wrapping it up in some butcher paper or aluminum foil about 4-5 hours into the smoking process. This will help keep things nice and moist, and not have that dark, crispy outer layer.
