Seems to me that if you smoke chuck for a long time, that most of the fat
renders and runs off as liquid grease. The rest imparts flavor. Of course,
I've never made jerky yet. But I've done a few chuck rolls and they come
out moist and delicious. The leftover smoked beef is awesome in burritos or
in chili or beef curry.
