    Turned out to be a good day to smoke some Boudin

    I started them at 140 then bumped it to 180 after 1 1/2 hours. I pulled the smoke at 2 hours and IT reached 160 just shy of 3 hours. The smoke flavor turned out to be a little heavy so next time I will pull it 30 minutes earlier.

    Have I ruined my butt??

    JJ thank you so  much for that, tis greatly appreciated! I really only intended to leave it for 1 hour but other things got in the way. But it's good to know even 1 hour isn't necessary. I ruined a batch of sausage a while back due to it sweating because I put it in cold, even though it was very...

    Have I ruined my butt??

    Well the last time I lit the pellets they stayed lit and burned great. After a couple of hours the smoke seemed to be getting a tad heavy so I pushed the chip tray in a little so it was out only about an inch. The loader was fully in. When I went out a little while ago to pull the AMNPS and foil...

    Have I ruined my butt??

    Yeah you are probably right. The other times it has gone out in under 30 minutes so I am giving it another 30 minutes. If it goes out this time I will switch back to the dust. I will go ahead and nuke some just in case I need it.

    Thanks Al. I replaced the dust with pellets. Given this is a hot smoke I'm not sure why I started with dust anyway but... now I can't keep the pellets lit. I've had to restart them 3 times. I nuked them 3 times. 45 seconds twice then 25 seconds. So I know they are dry. I am positive they were...

    Have I ruined my butt??

    Yikes! I put my butt (10lbs) in the smoker this morning at 5am at 130* to dry and warm up. At 7am I added the AMNPS loaded with dust and bumped the temp to 225*. I checked it at 7:20 and 7:50 and had a nice TBS both times. Then I got busy and didn't check for 2 hours. When I go out there at 9:50...
