Man I love pickled beets...
I always do a few jars around the Christmas holidays...
Your pictures made me want some now...lol...in fact I just updated my grocery list to include a few pounds of beets...
If I get on it I can have em done by my 4th of July smoke out.
I'm actually surprised how many orange based bbq sauce recipes along similar lines there are...the ingredient list you posted is a bit more elaborate and makes a much larger quantity but the ingredients in the recipies I quickly scanned over all look to make something of a similar flavor profile.
In fact I just followed my own advice and Guy Fieri from the food network has an "orange bbq sauce" recipe with many of the same ingredients and he uses 1 cup OJ but his ingredient quantities look to be about half of what youve got listed...
Brisket wasn't my origional plan...I had four racks of ribs pulled Friday when my daughter and niece both ambushed me and said
"Brisket pleeeeease"...
I dont know if that means my ribs are that bad or brisket that good but when the ladies ask for brisket...they get brisket...
I wish I had a few...
Spot on advice from everybody...
I definetly inject flats and even smaller packers...say the 10-12 pound range...
I usually use some quality beef base with bit of Worcestershire sauce but Al mentioned onion soup...that sounds like a perfect flavor profile to me and I'm going to try it out on...
Lol...I was lucky to scrape up enough scraps for my own sammie...
I turned my back for a second after I sliced it up and looked back and it devoured...good thing the fat was good...that's about what I got...
Hahaha...I didnt get any plated pics because I turned my back for a second and turned back and it was half gone...lucky there was a slice left to get the one picture I did.
Had this little 12.5 lb prime in the freezer
Trimmed up nice...
Smoked on my 18" bullet at 230°~240° with KBB and hickory chunk...was probe tender in about 13 1/2 hours.
I posted a great vinegar mustard recipe in the sauces section a couple weeks back that came from my sisters grandmother in law from S. Carolina that, IMHO, will knock your socks off...took me a dozen years to worm it out of her.

Welcome...I'm a Michigander too...near Ann Arbor.
Be sure to join the Michigan smokers group under the "groups" heading in this forum and introduce yourself.
This is IMHO the very best meat smoking forum on the net...
So much free information, great advice, top notch recipes and all round...
Anybody? I'm looking for a WSM 22...
I'm near Ann Arbor but am not opposed to traveling a bit.
Condition isn't real important as long as all the pieces are there...I dont mind cleaning.
If you've got one or know of one let me know...
Thanks folks

I guess everybodys techniques differ a bit...
Unlike gmc2003 I open my bottom vent about 1/8 inch...a bit more than a crack...
Then I use the top vent to control temps...I'll only fiddle with the bottom vent if my top vent is 3/4 open and I'm still running cool...
But I do tend to stay to the...
I do use prague... I follow the exact same per pound recomendations for beef...
However, I've made it without also...the jerky just doesnt have the same longevity and needs to be refrigerated.
I have noticed that without prague you lose a bit of that "old fashioned" jerky flavor...its hard to...
