mop bottles ..how many

[south jersey bbq tim]

ok, just got back from the store and ready to do spare ribs and apple brined chicken..smoked after the brine of coarse!! so i find myself having a spay bottle of half apple cider vinegar and half apple juice. another bottle with striaght pineapple juice which i want to try. now for the mop.... i guess you basically mop it on with a brush right? i have tried so many things and feel a may do too much!!!

I usually try to Spritz my meat a bit but I seem to be doing it less and less these days. I will usually use apple juice or some kind of juice that I have in the fridge or I will use any kind of pop I have around the house like Mt. Dew.

If you are using a bbq sauce type mop i found a silicon mop on qvc a few years back that is fantastic . If using a thin mop., then go to a local grilling or kitchen supply and buy what looks like a minature house mop.
Or do like i do grab a new natural haip paint brush

mt. dew...nice

Never tried Mt. Dew, but why not. Great idea. My wife loves MD and will love the idea. Gotta try it.

Mt. Dew works pretty well. With all the sugar in it you really get a nice bark and flavor.

That's the one!! Use it liberally and often after the first couple of hours!

Enjoy!

Actually it's:

Mountain Dew lists its ingredients as:[citation needed]

• Sugar (replaced by High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) in much of the United States)
• Concentrated orange juice

That would be one reason it caramelizes and gives you the bark

I thnk I have used and own all of them from a paint brush to a silicone brush to too the mini mop thing (it's hard to get clean) and I have tried them all and I have found the silicone to do the best job but thats me and my pennies.
