    spare ribs for $1.59 in omaha

    the freezer is full. the checking account is not. but i am happy. No Frills supermarkets here in omaha have spare ribs (full, not st louis cut) in the cryo pack for $1.59 that is the best price i have seen since i got my smoker. get them while you can.

    My biggest butt to date.

    try having the butcher cut it into 3-4" slabs and smoke those. have them cut the long way for more surface area. your cooking time goes down and you get more outside 'bark' and therefore more flavor in your pulled pork. the more bark the better, i say.

    Recipie for fresh ham

    30lbs each? those things are huge! there is no way you can get them smoked in 12 hours. figure 60 minutes/lb at 325. you should take them tot he butcher shop and have them cut into 10lb pieces on the meat saw. then you can cook them at a lower temperature for better results and still get them...

    30lbs, how much rub?

    just be sure that you rinse them thoroughly to get any tiny bits of saewd up bone out of the meat. once you put the rub on it, you cant see them anymore. and you don't want to serve that. i will usually tip the butcher a six pack for doing this and its worth every penny. not just in time but...

    30lbs, how much rub?

    yes. they are quicker. figure 90 minutes per pound per piece. when i bought my last load of $.89 a pound picnic hams, i had the butcher cut them into 3 inch thick chunks. i left the bone in and they just saw right through it. the biggest chunk weighed just over 3lbs and it cooks in about 4 and...

    first pork loin

    the pork loin is just about the easiest thing to smoke. you trim the fat pad off of it, sprinkle it with spices and throw it on the smoker. once he internal temperature gets north of 140, pull it. its done. i have smoked 6lb chunks in as little as 2:30 it is always a crowd pleaser. serve it...

    Fresh Picnic smoke, need some advice!!

    that is a nice price on them. all picnics have a big bone in them. that is why they are so cheap. you really cant trim all the meat off of the bone. if you are buying them fresh, have the butcher cut them in half. or get really big ones and have them cut into thirds on the meat saw. that will...

    complete GOSM sentry mod

    i love my GOSM big block. the only problem i had was keeping the temperature stable. it would swing +/- 25 degrees whenever the wind blew. the gas valve that comes with them is just not very adjustable. i read up on the sentry valve modification and i decided to give it a try. here is my parts...

    GOSM Sentry MOD

    the regulator on your GOSM is a .5 psi regulator. the sentry valve will not work properly on that pressure. it needs 10+ psi to do its job. the stock GOSM burner is not up to the task either. you need a 10 psi turkey fryer burner and regulator to get it all to work properly. if you get a burner...

    Whole Hog for 4th Lotsa Pics

    when i was a kid, my father (USDA meat inspector and BBQ fiend) cooked 4-7 whole hogs every year for the county fair sandwich stand. we smelled like chared meat for weeks. we found it much easier to quarter the hogs before cooking them. its not as pretty but that way you could put the hind...
