    Here we go, my first pulled pork

    It was asked about the BBQ sauce I was planning to use. After consulting my wife I found that the recipe was not a family secret...it should be. But rather from a book. Anyway here it is. Rocky Mountain Barbecue Sauce (from Colorado Cache Cookbook) 3 tbl, Brown Sugar 1, 14-oz bottle catsup...

    Here we go, my first pulled pork

    My wife's family has a home made BBQ sauce they use for brisket. It is really good, but I'm not sure what kind it is. I will have to check. Well I guess my plan kind of takes care of the stall. When I reach 165 the pork will be double wrapped in foil and finished out with heat only. I may even...

    Here we go, my first pulled pork

    Ahhh what is the dreaded stall, and what should I be prepared for? I just hope my estimate of 1.5 hours per pound includes this stall? We are having a small family gathering tonight and the plan is to have pulled pork sandwiches, coleslaw (home made with apples), Angle Food cake (my favorite)...

    Here we go, my first pulled pork

    I'm stepping out of my comfort zone of chicken and doing my first pulled pork. Still a newbie! Got it in the smoker at 6:15 this morning, 30 minutes later the smoker is resting at 230. The plan is: 1) Picked up a 5.5 pound bone in port shoulder roast on sale. 2) Rubbed it down with Frenches...

    What is a good replacement temp gauge for a ECB?

    Cleaning the smoker

    I'm rather new to all this and have been wondering if I'm going overboard with cleaning. Right now I have the ECB electric. After every smoke I clean the racks and water pan. I mean clean, soak, water and scrubbing. Is all this really needed?

    Cornish Math

    I'm planning to smoke 3 hens tomorrow but I'm worried about being done to early. If I run my smoker at 250-275 I know a 4.5-5 lbs chicken takes 3.5-4 hours. So if change the chickens to 22oz (~1.5lbs) hens should it only take 2.5-3 hours?

    I need to say "Thanks"

    Man that was a bunch of quick replies. First of all I'm passing along the quick knowledge I've been blessed with to a couple of buddies that taking to the smoke. My wife asks for Turkey, chickens...and whatever....as long as the smoke is light. (Working on that) If I had teachers like this I...

    Need a time estimate

    I'm planning to do 3 22oz Cornish game hens this weekend. With the expected peak day temperature being only 40-50F I'm estimating my electric smoker will make it to only 250, maybe 275 at best. What would be a good estimate for time at 250F?

    I need to say "Thanks"

    I'm really new to smoking, and started this summer (2009). Without this site and the help of the people here I would of had to learn all this by trial-n-error. i.e a lot to the dogs or trash. With all the knowledge here I have had GREEEEEAT success! Absolutely NO failures, knock on wood. A...

    Wife bowls one night a week....

    My wife likes lightly smoked, but isn't as excited about experimenting as I am. She does love my chicken and turkey. If there is left overs they are used up fast. Our family is so busy that 3 hours of "ME" is really special For this week I'm leaning towards a Fattie or Meat Loaf, and may add...

    Wife bowls one night a week....

    and she she really isn't into trying new smoked things.....so I have a 2-3 hour slot of time one night a week to try new stuff. Any suggestions for this short of a time. I have been thinking of doing a Fattie or Meet Loaf.

    Dead Smoker

    You may try taking it to a appliance repair shop and see if they can redo the connection using high temp connectors for dryer elements. DO NOT use the basic crimp connector for auto repair since they are not rated for high temperature operation and will oxidize over time from the heat and fail.
