    Beef burnt ends using the entire brisket

    I prefer burnt ends and would like to make the entire brisket into burnt ends. I tried searching the forum and googling, and had no luck. Has anyone done it? Times/Temps/Process? I'm not sure how far the ad covers, but the Dayton, Ohio Area Krogers has brisket for $1.99/lb!!!! Chris

    lessons learned from smoking 100 lbs of butt

    First off, there is a crazy difference in timing even with dealing with similar size pieces of meat. Second.  Doing the final temp raise (double wrapped in foil in a foil pan) to the final temp is a huge time difference when done on a smoker vs. a convection oven.  I had so much meat finishing...

    how well does pork shoulder vacuum seal/freeze?

    I offered to cater the meat for a friends wedding (remind me not to drink and offer smoking).  Anyway, I don't to risk making it the day before and having some technical issue pop up. So what I was thinking of is doing it one month ahead of time.  Smoking 100 lbs of pork shoulder, pulling it...

    Well, they were done.  All clear juices.  the breast was just slightly dry, although i am used to pork, so maybe it was ok.  the dark meat was OUTSTANDING.

    60 lbs of whole turkeys today. hope it works

    WTF? they are done already.  4.25 hours.  I have probed them in multiple areas and all read 160.  They are currently resting on the open smoker with foil wrap.  Smoker is around 130-140.  Can this be right?  The smoker was around 300 - 325 the whole time.  Does it act like a giant convection...
