How long to cook a chuck roast
what I do so it's just falls apart and great for pulled sandwiches is
set oven at 220F, season roast and put in pot with 1 or 2 cups of water, or put rack in pot so roast is NOT in water, your choice, no rack that fits in pot then get aluminum fold and crumple it up in long line and coil it to fit in bottom of pot and put roast on it.
COOK for 5 hours at 220f, you can devoure it as soon as it comes out of oven, it will just fall apart and great for making pull beef sandwiches, or let it sit for 1/2 hour and it will firm up and then it can be sliced thin or thick.
I have even done it with no water but need to be on rack or off bottom of pot as not to burn, you get a more carmilised coating on roast..
Chuck roast is tough cut of beef and need to cook for long time, 220f for 4 to 8 hrs will do the job
