Can you Substitute Beef for Pork?

I'm very bad at cooking meat. I was a vegetarian for years and even to this day, I don't eat much meat nor do I ever really crave it. I have a meat dilemma and I need help because as I said, this is one area of cooking where I'm totally clueless.

Here's the question:
I want to make this Tyler Florence recipe for my dad:

Yes, it's a pork chili, but I have a huge sirloin tri-tip roast in my freezer and I'm not about to go out and buy another hunk of meat. So, can my beef roast be a replacement for the pork shoulder? Will it still taste good? How will the cooking time differ?

Thanks ahead of time, meat experts.
