Didnt get to play with my smoker today had to work but I picked up this at wally world on the way home 


and its soaking in a nice marinade of salt, pepper, fennel, cumin, soy sauce, garlic powder, a hint of ground ginger, and a half a splash of apple cider vinegar.


it'll be going in the box at about 5 am. I'll keep the tread updated through the day (yes with pics)

well, finally hit 165 IT 


just double wrapped it in foil, basted it one last time, and set her back in the box. 

also just made some baby yukon gold taters with red onion, rosemary and oregano from my garden, red onion, EVOO, salt and pepper.


popped those in the box to cook also.

well it hit 195 IT, its been transferred to the ice chest to rest for a bit, checked the taters I guess I should have tossed them in a bit earlier, so I just popped them into a covered dish and in the oven. made my "juice" (kind like the finishing sauce I guess) very basic, 1 cup of water, a generous dollop of molasses, and cider vinegar to taste, bring to a boil and then cool slowly. I just drizzle a little bit on after I pull.

anyway, when I was transferring from the foil to the ice chest a piece "fell off" and it tastes really good. been kind a long one for a sunday, but worth it.   
 
Mmmmmmm.


Oh I think I'm going to be in a food coma soon. that turned out really good, blended in a little bit of tangy BBQ sauce (store bought, nothing special) 

I think I'm liking this lil electric smoker. But, I think I need to build a stand for it. its way too close to the ground. maybe I'll build a whole cabinet for it. 
 
 
Sorry, I was getting kinda excited and forgot.

Took less than 3 min to strip the bone that clean.

Kinda reminds me of the old cartoons where the character quickly swishes the ham in the water while the pirannas boil the water underneath it, he pulls it back out,  and thats your bone!

Congrates looks like you did an outstanding job!
 
Thanks guys, it really did come out good, I vacuum packed some and put it in the freezer. and of course enough for a few sammiches. Now I have to figure out whats going in it next...... maybe ribs next week.
