    Cushion pulled pork and some spares... First long smoke in a while!

    I am interested but have never heard of pork cushion. Is this something you buy at a regular super market? If it is not as dry as a pork butt I am curious to try it. That was the main complaint about my first attempt at pulled pork was that it was too fatty. Any info on this would be much...

    I actually cut up a couple of scrap 2x4 I had and screwed some old casters to it. Put my smoke vault on it and used screws and washers to hold the legs to the wood. Works great.

    Hamburger last night

    Thanks guys. No cheese dripping, that was just the fat off the burger. Next time maybe look 80/20 instead of 85/15. But it was pretty good. Just some SPOG.

    Smoked hamburgers last night. Apple wood and about 225 to 250. Came out good. Family liked them.

    Smoking my first brisket but we got a bunch of rain on the way

    Only because I just did it, Hickory is very strong.  So if you don't like a really strong smoke flavor, I would stay away from Hickory.  Just putting my two cents in, and that is about all it is worth.

    Great.   Thanks for the info.  Going to give it another shot when the meat is on sale.  10/pound is a bit steep for nobody to eat it.  LOL.

    Partial brisket

    Thanks for the info.  My temp was good in the smoker.  I had it about 230 to 250 all the way thru.  Not sure why it took so long to cook though.  Everything I read said it should have taken about 5 to 6 hours tops.  Oh well, seems that everything I try and cook takes more time than it should...

    Jimmy, you hit it right on the head.  I used Hickory and kept it going thru the whole six hours in the smoker.  Probably way too much smoke in the meat.  Also, it took allot longer than I had expected.  I figured between 5 to 6 hours for a 3 pound piece of meat, this one I had to pull at 6 hours...

    Partial brisket

    Not so good.  It was a bit stronger than the family liked it.  I was a bit disappointed in how long it took as well.  I figured 5 to 6 hours, and at hour 6 I finally just wrapped it in foil and finished it up in the oven.  I should know better as every smoke I have done has gone way longer than...

    Did not go over well. Seems my family is not the smoking kind. May have a smoke vault for sale soon.
