You know, for a phenomenal dog (which I have to admit I’ve doctored to smoke as a bastard hot link) the Costco 1/4 lb dogs are good too.
All Beef, artificially low price point as a loss leader.
I would suggest that the kowawalskis might be a quality dog that’s a bit bolder, so it stands up to the super beefy coney sauce.
On the other hand, the Koegels has a profile that is more “hot dog like” so it doesn’t argue with the fairly aggressive profile of the Chicago dog.
Whatever, they are...
I don’t know, and while I’ve had some kowalski’s, coneys, the best damned Chicago style dogs I have ever had (as a 25+ year resident of Illinois and a 5 year resident of Lincoln park (while Gold Coast dogs was doing it right with Vienna Beef (and Mike Royko agreed with me on a neat, sort of...
Spend a fair amount of time in SW Missouri, so might not be a problem. Used to live in Galveston before I understood bbq, but since then, have made more than a few forays back into Texas to find out what I’m missing.
Always looking for another excuse, and by mid-February, the honeysuckle is...
As an ex Chicago guy, I will freely admit that Koegels dogs beat Vienna beef hands down.
That being said,
I’m not a huge cony dog fan, but flint-style with Koegel’s beef (not cheap chicken dogs like most of the places in the rest of Michigan and all of Indiana)
They make their cony sauce from...
Do a big party about every month.
Had the same problem, but now use a $3.99 harbor freight moving blanket, and go back and forth between two 128qt coolers. Toss the blanket about every 4 mos, and no stink, (and my wife never yells at me)…
You can get all the smoke you need on it by 150f. Wrap it and dump the pellet pooper for an oven, because it has already done a great job of giving you a phenomenal bark.
Use tinfoil, because it keeps the juices in.
Continue the heat at 275-300 until it probes like above, and keep it wrapped in the foil for 12 hrs or so at 160 until you’re ready to cut it up. Don’t peek
The best stuff I’ve found for injection is Better Than Bullion (beef, of course) made at 1 tbsp per 8 oz/ water.
Why?
I’m not being argumentative, just wundering?
Seemed like a nice, low key place trying to do a good job, and definitely not overpriced for what I got.
Then we wrap in double foil until it probes just a bit tight in the flat. Usually around 190 for a probe in the point. When it starts to get buttery, we turn the cabinet down to 160f and leave it for the rest of the night.
The next day, we pull it and slice as appropriate.
Never had a bad one...
We do almost exclusively primes (the attached is a choice, from which we donated the front part of the flat for burnt ends at about 150f.
I have a 7500w electric heated smoker with an entirely seperate smoke generator, so we put the hurt on the briskets for a few hours with smoke and heat at...
Have had franklins, but they can’t touch Snows. Those guys smoke to around 150, wrap with tinfoil and cook to the general temp regarded as tender, then hold wrapped till ready to serve at 160 or so.
