...4 pork butts and pulled them yesterday. Refrigerated and plan to serve tomorrow. A couple questions for the experts...1) Should I add finishing sauce before or after reheating? I'm inclined to add it before to help the moisture. 2) I was going to use the oven to reheat, but am now considering...
Quick question ; Never finished sausage SV. Doing brats (29-32mm), if I get them to about 130° after approx 4 hrs smoke and want to get to 151°, (per chart 1 1/4 hr.)
Do I still need to go the 75 mins? Going to SV naked so don't want to poke more than absolutely needed.
I used the hot honey and yard birds on my last couple buts, then after adding the finishing sauce I added more hot honey to get the heat back, worked great! I probably would rerub ribs tho.
I've been doing this for a few years. The key to getting the right texture is taking the pork butt a little past your normal finishing temp, I usually take mine to 210°, to get the softer 'mushy' feel, doing this helps them hold together better when smashing.
Pop one on a toasted bun with some...
...time to look back at my interactions with him and found a long message string back and forth that we had where he was teaching me about his SV method for finishing sausages. Never met him in person, heard his voice or knew what he looked like, but I feel like I knew him. Strange, but cool in...
...23, and 25, ie the current spec series uses them)….then a RDI comp (39% recoil reduction) on the delivery end……
The plus 6 base will go on the 23 to make it 29….but running the 25 for now for the 250th
The finishing touch is a vortex defender ST green 3MOA dot with co-witness sup-high sights….
...This is where I settled in using the SmokeFire . If you read through from the top I describe the process , starting on the smoker , then finishing in the oven . Also look at post 66 after you read through the first part .
I've replicated this 5 times in a row . Awesome results everytime ...
...I cook all butts at 275 start to finish. Low and slow just takes longer. I dont wrap or spritz, just smoke till done, rest, pull and add finishing sauce.
BUT: like @chopsaw mentioned. I will rarely cook something (or try new methodology) for others for the first time. Its dicey and...
@MileHighSmokerGirl The sous vide in water brings the internal temp. of the sausage up 25X faster than finishing them in the smoker. Lots of guys like to finish sausages this way for this reason (water transfers heat 25X more efficiently than air).
If no cure is used, then the sausage...
...or rib run.
Try a smaller charcoal load and a tube filled with pellets. You are looking to smoke and partially cook the sausage before finishing by poaching in a warm water bath.
I can smoke in a JJ using a pellet tube and a small charcoal load. Wood chunks are not reliable in my experience.
Agree
That's why I want to try or at least check out Len Poli.
I've started with a few Marianski recipes and learned to fry test and adjust before finishing.
...temp rise stall.
For me on the west side of Colorado it’s especially bad. Which is partly why I moved to hot fast cooking and hot water finishing on pretty much all sausage. Sticks not so much but everything other sausage type I make is water finished because of the dry. The large 4-5”...
Mighty fine looking! I'm finishing up a small prime rib after smoking it with red oak until 120, in the sous vide now at 130, then onto the charcoal sear!
Wow what a week it's been. Still recovering and dealing with this.
Wife did a good job finishing up. The pepperoni and cheese sticks are the first snack stick ive truly liked. Delicious. Kielbasa and summer sausage good as usual.
Also did 10lbs or brown sugar maple and 10lbs of country sausage...
