    Jeff's Rum Injected Ham

    I tried the buttered rum injected ham that was in the smoking meat newsletter last week, and it was superb.    I followed the directions and pre injected a 9 lb ham with the butter/rum/brown sugar mixture. My only problem came was with the injecting because the ham would clog the injector...

    Where in NC are you hailing from?

    Wes, I am sure you are proud of that son! I was career Navy and I always hoped if we were in harms way that our good Marine brothers would there to assist. Keep on smokin'.

    master built or cook shack?

    I absolutely agree. I don't know how anyone smokes meat without the Maverick dual probe. Those smoker thermometers are a good 30 to 40 deg hotter than my actual measured temp at meat level. The Mav is worth every dime. If you are serious about smokin'; get the Mav a pair of good gloves and enjoy.

    Chicken, my new favorite method

    I did the whole deal,: brine, rub and sauce. Those spatched chickens were moist and absolutely delicious. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pix before they were consumed, but both chickens looked just like the picture above! My sons went crazy over them and I am not sure they let the grand-kids...

    Smokin' a small pork butt - how do they differ from the BIG Butts?

    I have only smoked 9 to 10# butts and I found a 3.5# at the grocery store yesterday. I was wondering if I could get cooked a lot quicker that the big ones. I also have always cooked at 220 to 240 for my butts. Will it be as tender with the higher temp of 275-285. I plan to pull it at 195 to 200...

    Chicken, my new favorite method

    No one seems to be addressing the grill temp. I have heard to do a good chicken from 225 deg to 350 deg. What do you BBQ'ers think?

    Chicken is too smokey

    Your basting recipe is REAL close to my Eastern NC BBQ sauce we use for pork and chicks. I plan to try it this weekend. Thanks for the motivating threads.

    Pork Butt Temperature Help?!?

    So why don't you like to foil and let stand, or do you mean you don't foil in the smoker? I do not foil in the smoker but when I take it out of the smoker, I foil it, wrap it in a towel and put it in a small cooler for two hours to let the juices set.

    How to smoke a Chuckie for slicing

    Thanks everyone. It sure is fun and the reward is a great meal with lots of accolades! We ate well, and have plenty for another 3 or 4 days, even though we gave half to my son. Thanks for all the help. JJ: I think next time I cook it to IT of 145 so I get some real pink out of it!

    How to smoke a Chuckie for slicing

    Things went well, and everyone enjoyed dinner. The big chuckie was sliced thin and had excellent flavor, particularly with a little au jus added. My wife won't eat rare meat so I cooked it to an IT of 152deg, and that was almost too much. I cooked it for almost 5 hrs to reach 152, and I should...
