Blend until smooth. Place in saucepan and add ketchup. Simmer 20 minutes.

The Rub: season salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, sweet paprika, & fresh rosemary

Rub spices on meat and let stand. Heat up your grill and prepare for smoking. Place handfuls of wood chips in and let smoke build up. Place meat on grill and let alone for 30 minutes. Watch your temperature, try to keep it between 250 and 350, and your smoke, add chips as necessary. Turn meat and let alone another 30 minutes. Turn every fifteen minutes until done. This will take anywhere from 2 to 4 hours depending on the thickness and weight of the meat.

The outside should be "crusty" but not charred, and the interior will be medium. There will be a red smoke ring at the edge.
