I was given a bag of treager apple wood pellets, and thought I’d use them on my ECB this weekend for a 10ish lb pork butt. I’ve never used these before, any suggestions? I was thinking on just dumping a cup or so on the coals once I get the temps leveled out. I don’t have a container to allow...
Tallbm hit the nail on the head. I wrapped at 145 when the temperature didn’t move for an hour and a half. Once done and rested 9 hours later and thought it tasted like juicy roast beef. I was very disappointed. No wrap next time. And I’m sticking with a traditional Texas rub
I threw a 6lb brisket (after trimming the fat), on the ECB morning at 5AM. I liberally salted it with coarse salt yesterday, then rubbed down with 2tbsp coarse black pepper, tbsp sugar, tsp garlic, tsp ancho chili powder and a tsp of chipotle chili powder. I followed a recipe for the rub, but I...
You boys want a powerful cup of coffee without breaking the bank or self esteem (you know your pinky’s raised when you drink it) by buying Starbucks every day? I buy a can of Cafe Bustelo Espresso each week for 3.99 and make a pot or two daily in my stove top percolator. I drink it black over...
Gilbert, Az? I know that town. My wife and I were stationed in Tucson for the best 6 years of my life! Every time it gets cold here in PA, we always talk of transferring back
Nope, I volunteered. I don’t know where the drafted thing came from. I wanted to be a door gunner in the army and after scoring highly on the entrance exams I thought it was a guarantee! Nope, the army told be EOD, medic or cook so I walked into the Air Firfe office and gave him all my paperwork...
Thanks, will do! I want to try my hand at briskets, but am loathe to do so until I gain better control of the heat. As it is, I have a hard time getting the heat above 230. I made a 8lb Boston butt this past weekend. After wrapping for the stall I tried to power through the back half by putting...
Hello bbq enthusiasts,
I joined about a month ago, but never formally introduced me self. I’m from southern PA, and have been in the Air Force for 8 years w/ two tours to Afghanistan and a 115 day vaycay to Qatar. I developed a love for BBQ because a big ol’ black southern boy from my old unit...
I got voluntold I was taking mine as a post deployment “welcome home gift”. Got it last weekend. I think they gave me Maderna. No reactions so far. Also, qualified as a Marksman with oak leaf clusters.
Turned out great, btw! I brought temp up to 275, and was done in about 11 hours! I wrapped at 165, but took forever to get out of the stall because high winds kept driving temps down. Plenty of leftovers to drop off at my family’s who are down with the ‘rona.
