Softball brine question: Best way to keep chicken cold while in brine
95% of the time I use the extra large plastic bags by Ziploc and Hefty, usually in the 2-4 gallon range. I always start with well chilled brine. For small work like chickens and ducks I use the refrigerator, for larger stuff like turkeys and whole pork loins I use an ice chest. BTW, what is... -

FINISHING SAUCE (for Pulled Pork)
SoFlaQuer, An homage to the Finishing Sauce. I have not experienced that flavor profile since my grandmother used to cook Q back in rural Georgia in the 60s. I was but a small boy at the time. That blend is about as perfect a flavor match to my palate as I have experienced in many a year. I...- chief61

Boston Butt How Long??????
Sounds like you did a great job on your Butt. I have to say it took me several times to quit freaking out about the plateau phase. I thought all of my equipment had gone haywire. I even dug out the infrared gun and took readings. Anyway I cook at 180-190 on the smoke cycle of the Traeger. Run... -

First ABT's q-view
Got a quick question on your ABTs. How long and how hot did you go with them? I have been frying jalapenos stuffed with cheese and crabmeat since the 80s but am intrigued at all of the positive information on smoking them. (In the deep south we fry everything.) Thanks and good eating, Billy- chief61

Goose, I usually smoke ducks to make a rich stock for gumbo or make a thick gravy like stew called etoufee. Smoked duck make these dishes sing. Once in blue moon I shred them and eat them in pulled duck sandwiches with pepper jelly and hot sauce. -

Can anyone backup this claim
I have had the Traeger for a little over two months. Transition from charcoal cooking has been interesting to say the least. Right now I am at the point that I wish I would have bought one of these years ago. So yes I like it, in fact the relationship is moving beyond the "liking" stage! -

Can anyone backup this claim
Bigjim, I was curious did you try the Traeger cooking suggestion that you posted? I follow that basic technique but shoot the temp up to 350 not 450 after start up. I have a Traeger Texas model. I also do not go to 170 internal breast temp but pull earlier at 165. I also rotate bird starting...
