Introducing Deli Style Roast Beef cooked to perfection using the 710 WiFi Digital Electric Smoker. This beef provides a savory delight without breaking the bank!

This recipe by @rustybbqlamb is easy and will provide you with superior tasting roast beef. For optimal results, it is recommended to season the meat 24 hours before you cook it. Rusty used about 2 tsp of Redmond's real salt and two teaspoons of a herb seasoning, but this smoked roast beef recipe is incredible versatile so you can use whatever your favorite flavors are; for using this for lunch meat, try to keep the seasoning fairly simple though for roast beef.

The steps in this recipe use the setting on the Masterbuilt 710 Wi-Fi electric smoker to 200°. The lower and slower you go the more tender it will be. Remember, the eye of the round of roast beef is not a tender cut so low and slow is your friend.

For a rarer result, you can take the meat out at 110°. Remember the temperature of the eye of round will increase around 10° after removing it from the cooker. So just adjust your temperature accordingly.

Finally, you want to rest this overnight and allow the meat to fully cool before slicing so you don't lose the juice. Rusty vacuum seals his, but if you don't have a vacuum sealer just wrap it up tightly in some plastic wrap. If you don't have a deli slicer, just take your time and slice it as thin as you can.

You will love the flavor and this budget-friendly smoked recipe with your vertical smoker.

Instructions
