    3rd time's the charm

    Thanks. Forgot to take a pic of them cut up, I'll make sure to do so next time. Next up will be a prime rib roast I think. Need to do as much as I can before winter hits, not that it's excessively cold here but cold enough.

    3rd time's the charm

    This was my 3rd smoke, 1st was pork ribs, very good but I was running a bit too hot and the coals ran out to boot, so I know they could have been better. 2nd was a spatchcock chicken that left a fair bit to be desired. This beef rib smoke came out perfect, smoked for about 6 hours at a very...

    Spachcock chicken good, not great

    I figured the thigh was as thick as any part and if anything ends up undercooked it would be that. I've never tried a brine on anything but it's on the list, what a great new hobby, eating

    Spachcock chicken good, not great

    I had the temp probe in the thigh, went to 170 which was my understanding for desired IT for thigh, 160 for breast. Had a slightly pink look to it so it didn't look over cooked. The breast in particluar lacked juice which may very well have been from the hot coals as you suggest. The smokey...

    Spachcock chicken good, not great

    Well I smoked my first chicken yesterday, looked great, tasted great but lost points for a general lack of juiciness. It wasn't really dry but compared to the rotiserrie chicken I make on my grill with the rear burner, it fell far short. It took 2 hours to get the internal temp right, and at the...

    Gave it a try

    They made an excellent mid afternoon snack. Since it was my first try I thought I'd play it safe and not count on it for dinner but as it turns out they were just fine. A bit too much Cumin flavour coming through for my liking, I don't usually use Cumin so I will cut that back a bit for the next...
