    Thrift Store/Garage Sale Scores

    I love hitting our local goodwill stores and have a never found much I could use there for the smoking process. However I had a pretty nice score from a garage sale I stumbled into last week. A pit boss 820d for $100. The gentleman told me that he tried to fire it up the week before and the...

    What should i smoke?

    Ribs would be a great choice as well as a pork loin. Pretty inexpensive way to feed folks. Leftovers are great as well. Very versatile in that you can use it for sandwiches or a fork and knife meal and pair it with any sides you would like. Going to cook in under 3 hours as well.

    Oven Temp For Overnight Finishing PP

    I would run it in your smoker your 4-5 hours, then put it in the oven at 190 degrees and get a good nights sleep. When I got up I would bump the oven up to 225 and finish it off. Wrap and rest till it was time to pull and eat. I am sure others will have better advice but that's how I would...

    what is the coldest temp you smoked at?

    This past January 6th was mine. Air temp was -11 in central Indiana not sure what the wind chill was. Wrapped the traeger in a welding blanket and a wool moving blanket and it did a real nice job. The things we will do for family.

    4.5lb brisket....could be better

    A little late on a reply. But at around 190 starting probing till a toothpick will slide in with no resistance. But I think the biggest issue you had was not resting nearly long enough. 2 hrs minimum and 4-5 is even better.

    Where are the Indiana members located?

    Seriousaboutsmokin, if you dont mind me asking what joints are you providing the pulled pork to. Would love to try it out. I am just up in Tipton so not far away. Can never find restaurants that have bbq that meets my expectations.

    BBQ for the extended family

    Both the brisket and the shoulder look great. For safety reasons shouldn't the brisket been above the pork.

    How much trim from full packer?

    Mastercaster how did the brisket turn out?

    Brisket troubles

    Instead of cooking to a temp of 205. When your therm. is showing 190 start probing with a toothpick or skewer. What your looking for is for it to slide in with little to know resistance. My flats usually finish closer to 195 then 190. Points in the 200 plus range. Give that a try sometime...

    How much trim from full packer?

    It sounds like your about right on your trimming. Kinda disheartening to trim that much off. But when the finished project is right on point you forget all about it. Good luck with your smoke this weekend
