    ECB Mod - Walmart Model

    So when I first began to try smoking meats, I did not want to have a large investment just in case I sucked at it. But my little bullet smoker from Walmart can smoke as hard as the others, just for not that many people. And I found out, I don't suck at it! ;) Here is how I received it from...

    Good Ole Pulled Pork - Texas Style

    Well after using southern recipes such as Georgia and Alabama, the sweet with heat recipes, I wanted to try Texas style where it's minimum spices and all about the meat flavor profile. However, after a month of Texas style, I might just hybrid the two.... Here is how the pulled pork went...

    Baby Backs - Texas Style (Dry Rib)

    This weekend, I didn't have much to do Saturday, so I fired up the old ECB and threw on some baby backs. I am not a big fan of too spicy or too sweet, I'd rather taste the meat.... And so, for rub I simply used: salt, pepper, and paprika (tiny bit of garlic & onion powder)..similar to a Texas...

    Damn, I'm glad I started this new hobby!

    I also attempted smoked Tilapia for some fish tacos. Rubbed some Tilapia fillets with salt, pepper, paprika, oregano, and cayenne. It was my first time even tasting a smoked fish, but they weren't that bad. Good quick meal... corn tortillas, some cabbage slaw and a squirt of lime. Still...

    First Brisket on an ECB

    First of all, it came out terrific. I used the hot and fast method in a 7 lb butt at around 375, foiled after 2 hours, brought it to temp at 205, then wrapped it in a blanket for a few hours. Unorthodox when I read it (Mixon recipe), but it came out great... used a lot of SMFs comments and tips...
