    Dry rub for injection?

    That injector I ordered has a huge bore in the needle. I could make a paste out of the rub I have and it wouldn't be a problem. Thanks

    Dry rub for injection?

    À mortar and pestel to grind the spices finer would be a good solution too I suppose. I ordered an injector with both side and tip opening needles from amazon yesterday.

    Dry rub for injection?

    Seems to work with Plowboy's Yardbird. The black pepper was the only snag. I had to modify the syringe to get past that but now 2 tsp in an ounce of water works great.

    Dry rub for injection?

    Has anyone taken a favorite dry rub and added a liquid to inject it into a boston butt? Thanks, Ian

    curus Interruptus

    I started a slab curing today (Morton TQ) and realized that I'm going to be out of town for thanksgiving weekend.  Is it permissible to RE-freeze it while I'm gone and then thaw when I get back to resume the cure?  I've always been told that once you thaw meat, you can't re-freeze it. Ian

    "The Flap"

    I will testify that it works great as a release agent on a snow shovel.

    The other guy said that a food processor wouldn't do it, I would guess that a blender would be a step down from that chopping power wise.

    Reducing chip size

    Me neither... but I don't watch TV, so it was an experiment.  I was on the verge of blisters by the time I got half a quart bag done.  Those cable cutters aren't the most ergonomic in the world.  Need some compound action cutters with softer grips.

    Reducing chip size

    It's just now burning down to the last of the one row I filled, so about 75 minutes per row.   I think a couple inches of dry stuff to burn and get a little bed of coals going, then the rest good and damp should do the trick.

    It jumped up to flames and I couldn't get it to stay smoldering without water.  Leave out the toaster oven thing and a bit less oxygen inside the smoker might be good.

    Reducing chip size

    Hmmm... it looks like it may work.  I put them in the toaster oven at 180 for 15 minutes, packed them fairly tightly and started them about 5 minutes ago.  Looks good so far.  Next time I'll hold it against my vibrating brass tumbler to settle the chips tighter.  This is in the open out on the...

    I'm not using them in conjunction with any grill.  This is for cold smoke.  I'd like them to support their own combustion like the pellets. I may try it and see how it does.  Pre-dry them crispy like in the toaster oven like some do the pellets. Ian
