The way I would do it is I would touch the G string with the end of the finger that is fretting the 4th fret on the B, and when you hit the D, G, and B, the G would be a chuck, and you wouldn't be able to hear it.
Rock and roll ain't noise pollution, but it can get pretty crappy these days.

Well, i had always thought that you needed to pick those with your finger and pick. I always do that and it sounds good. The only problem is it can get hard or frustrating when you first start out. All the other ones are good to.
