    Is there a good sub for rump roast? My grocery store didn’t have rump, so I got an eye of round roast, 2.5 lbs and did it low for 8 hrs and it’s super dry. Using the juices and the peppers helps, but for future reference what is the best meat for this?

      You could also do ribs and then pull off the meat. Some cuts are dry. I’m sorry it didn’t work out.
