    Injecting a Boston Butt

    Not my first, but would be the first one I've injected. Apparently I unknowingly did the right thing on the others by not checking the temp til I knew they were close. I know they'll stay moist as my others have, was just curious if it would be worth additional flavors.

    Injecting a Boston Butt

    I need opinions on injecting a Boston Butt. Not WHAT to use, but rather or not I should. My mind was made up that I was going to, and then I discovered this '4 hours to 135 IT' deal. Is it better to just not inject it? Is injecting it worth the risk? Is it really a big deal? I use an offset...

    Smoking a chicken

    It was so juicy everyone was asking me if I was sure it was done. I was very surprised and happy with that part.

    Smoking a chicken

    Thanks again guys. The chicken turned out 10X better than I expected. I let it soak from Thursday morning to Friday morning and then dry in the fridge from then until Saturday morning. I ended up just going with my own mix of seasonings on the brine, and no rub at all.

    Smoking a chicken

    Thanks again guys. Looks like I won't have to worry about it drying out. So a question about the skin. I've read up on how to get it crisp, but is there any certain ingredient(s) in the brine that I don't want to leave out? I usually never follow any recipes, and just throw stuff together, but I...

    Smoking a chicken

    Thanks guys. I always heard the breast gets dry, but maybe it doesn't. I just have a Brinkman charcoal smoker. Not a fan of the electric ones.

    Smoking a chicken

    I'll be smoking a chicken Saturday for the first time. I've had great success in the past with pork and Boston butt, including a pork loin this past Sunday, but am looking for any tips on chicken. My main concerns are keeping it from drying out. Thanks in advance. Brad
