Back again

Hope everyone is doing well in this BBQ weather.
The other day I picked up a 10 lb top sirloin roast from Costco. I put some Montreal steak seasoning on it and wrapped it in plastic wrap and foil, put it in the fridge overnight.
The next morning I started soaking some chunks of hickory. While that was going on I got the smoker going and waited for it to get hot. After about 30 minutes I put the wood in the smoker.
I set my internal meat thermometer to 145. Let the meat go at 400 for about 30 min. Then turned it down to 250, for about 6 hrs. I took it out at 145 internal and wrapped it in foil for about an hour(you could wrap it in foil and cover it with a towel, put it in a small cooler for a while).
All the above is trial and error, this is the first time I tried this type of roast.
I must say it turned out very moist and tender, I had to pat myself on the back more than once.
Needless to say most people don't need a 10 lb roast. Just use the size you think will work for you and your family and friends.
