All I can say is this is going to become a habit. It turned out awesome! I made a finishing sauce that SoFlaQuer posted and used that on half of the meat and the other half I just used the juices. I'll post pics soon, I'm currently having trouble attaching files here.
Thanks for all the responses. I just put it in the smoker and will mix up some spritz for it. I figure it should take around 8.5 hours. Here's a couple pics to start out, hope they turned out ok.
Would appreciate any tips from the veterans who have done this before. I figure I smoke it around 225-250 til it hits 160, then wrap it? til it gets to 200 degrees, and take it out, wrap in towels and stick in a cooler for an hour or so?
I picked up a 5.5 lb pork butt tonight and got it rubbed down with a mesquite seasoning rub that I bought at a local butcher shop. Going to be putting it in the smoker (MES) tomorrow morning. Will probably be using apple and cherry wood. I'll post pics as the day goes on.
I made my first fatty a couple of weeks ago and I know what all the hype is about. I used 1 lb of venison/pork sausage and stuffed it with hashbrowns, onions, and shredded cheese. Went great for breakfast. Was kinda tough to roll but think next time I'll use 2 lbs of sausage.
I've got it too but it won't be too long and the river will be thawed out enough to get the boat out and only a month and 8 days away from spring turkey season.
Well it didn't turn out as good as I had planned. It went from being too moist to being too dry really quick. Not super dry but drier than I wanted it to be. Should've used more seasoning too. But at least it was a decent trial run. Don't get me wrong, it's edible. I'm just my worst...
OK, got the batch going. Put in at 4:45pm at 180 degrees in my MES. I'm only gonna smoke for an hour cuz I'm afraid of oversmoking it since this is my first batch of jerky in the smoker. Here's some before pics.
