We end up doing a bunch of appetizers, son wants mozz sticks, wife loves brie, got her some yesterday. Not sure what else will be on the menu, maybe if I can find some porkbelly, Ill make up some burntends. I know there will be other things, just not sure what else Ill be making.
Well, the frozen ham was donated to a food panty for thanksgiving, but I may get one with their next batch of meat.
Thanks for all the advice here.
I ended up getting a porkbelly from Costco

Nice work on the pulled pork!
I do something kind of similar but way less complicated.
I take a pork butt and on the meat side opposite of the fat cap side. I take a knife and cut it "almost" in half until I hit the bone and then I stop. I leave it all one piece but now I can spread it out...
I have had a urge to make some porkbellyburntends for a few months now and due to insanity of life, had not gotten around to it till today.
We decided this weekend, asides any necessities, we were just going to relax for the weekend. After my haircut I went grocery shopping and picked up a...
First attempt at porkbellyburntends this past weekend. One traditional, the other Chinese influenced.
The Chinese style (Char Sui) was the favorite. The traditional was really good as well.
Smoked with apple and cherry @ 250degrees for 3 hours. Sauced and covered for additional 90 minutes...
...it's hard to find porkbelly. Local store sells the Hormel kind and they are like you described. I do get them sometimes for porkbellyburntends but they wouldn't make good bacon imo. May be worth digging through them and looking for a nicer one if you just want to get your feet wet in...
...to try to outdo myself. I wanted to try and prepare several different options. I am thinking beef ribs, poor man’s burntends, porkbellyburntends, maybe some pulled chicken, and/or country style ribs on a stick. Not committed to all or any of those…just thinking out loud. Well…not really...
I just use disposable foil pans. Smoke and creosote can be a chore to clean off pans and the dishwasher may not be able to get it all... and it can stain up your dishwasher and dishes in side as well.
So throw away foil pans work best for me!
Now I have bought and use "baskets" that were wire...
Not a fan of burntends, but I like to watch.
I have friends that do it both ways. Most go ahead and chunk (especially porkbelly) so the whole batch is more a hors d'oevres style nibbles.
Propane will flow but it needs a little help. Bring the tank inside overnight so it starts warm. If it...
Thank you for all the work involved in putting this on. It is both encouraging and discouraging.
Encouraging because I always want to jump in on one of these, and see not all of the entrants had a full buffet on there. I cook a lot of meat, and my photo skills suck, but share as much as I can.
Somehow #16) did not get posted in the voting section of the poll. This poll has caused numerous issues that I've tried to work through but the system will not allow me to change the order of the entries as they are listed for voting so #16) can be put in sequential order. Therefore it is at the...
Cooking for the family today. 10 lb pork butt to be pulled, and a 6 lb porkbelly cubed to go on later. Dry brined the butt with kosher salt, injected with apple juice, rubbed with Killer Hogs The BBQ RUB. Using Q pellets 100% Hickory on the Traeger. Got the Butt on a little over an hour ago...
This is how I do them as well. I pan sear method on the stove more than back in the smoker though …. High heat in a non/stick sear the chunks a bit then add & caramelize the sauce while tossing. I do porkbellyends this way!
Hi there
As the title suggests, I'm feeding 6 people at 3pm on Sunday; have a 8.5lb pork shoulder on order at the butcher. A mid-afternoon serve time is awkward for me.
I'm considering overnight L&S or early morning H&F; I have a leaning one way but would love to hear your guys' thoughts...
