This was my first competition but not my last! Used Blues Hog and a little bit of a sauce from my Ribs. It was a 12lb butt that I dry rubbed with a Rib rub I buy from my local Amish store and let rest in the cooler with some ice for two hours. I put it on at 12am and pulled it off just after...
Went off pretty darn good had a couple that were just a slight bit bitter once sauced you couldn't taste it. They were the closest two to the fire box. Got to try out my new Wolf Claw meat handlers they are the same as the Bear Claws I assume but weren't on back order so I went with the Wolfs.
This is the most ive cooked by about 40 lbs. I started at 1am reception is at 6. Using hickory and pear. Picked up an igrill to help keep track of it all.
Finally got to do a brisket! Smoked 100% w/ hickory my wife and 3 year old were litterally fighting over the next slice when I was cutting it up lol! Planned on letting it go to 180 but it stalled @ 155 for 1.5 hrs and I was impatient so pulled it off. It was 110% better then that bottom round...
Tyty!
Nah not mine maybe someday but for the moment the guy who owns it doesn't want to sell :( .That's about 4 ft off my back porch though I pull the smoker around to the side of the house w/ the least wind so it could be pretty much anywhere in my yard!
Here's the piece I trimmed off the end that I took off @ 160 I smoked this w/ white oak and this probably 1lb piece took about 8 hours smoker was around 225-240.
160 should put it @ 170 want to break it down fairly well. I have done alot of chicken and pork wanted to get comfortable w/ the cheaper stuff before I went to beef it is my first year of smoking kind of explained the chain of events that put me into this smoker in my introduction thread.
