    Pork Shoulder Texas Crutch question

    Once bark is set, pass the finger nail test, you can wrap without hurting the bark too much. If you open the foil then you can reestablish the bark. I've done shoulders wrapped and unwrapped. It depends on my mood or time constraints. I do lean towards wrapping not because I don't like the bark...

    PERFECT RIBS EVERY TIME! This really works!

    Al, I'm trying this method this weekend but I have one question... I don't have a gas grill as I have gotten rid of since I haven't used it in like 6 years, so what can I do about the membrane at the end of the cook? Thanks

    BRISKET/HOT ITALIAN SAUSAGE MIX MEATLOAF

    Just wow! I may have to try this on Saturday as I haven't chosen what to grill/smoke yet. I basically grill or smoke every single weekend no matter what the weather condition is. Neighbors must think something is wrong with me because even during a blizzard you can still catch me outside...

    2nd Brisket Cook....

    That's one fine looking brisket you got there sir! Amazing smoke ring! Here where I live they do sell point cuts at the local Market Basket. In fact it's cheaper than buying the flats.

    Smoked butt in kettle?

    Pork butt was great. Used my Memphis rub diluted in apple juice and injected right before putting it on the grill. I also took off the fat cap as well. Pics below:

    Smoked butt in kettle?

    So once the water level dropped to just shy of 1/4 full temps raised up to 266 and stayed there for the last hour. Pork got to 160 and bark was at the color I prefer so I wrapped it. I have a smaller smoker i built that i have a covered water bowl but filled with sand and covered with aluminum...

    Smoked butt in kettle?

    Ok well I ended up using my wsm because I just didn't want to fuss around with adding charcoal here and there in the kettle. I was going to put sand in my smoker but couldn't find the bag I had stored in the shed. Plus its actually warm outside, 31 in the morning and 41 in the after. Put water...

    Smoked butt in kettle?

    Doing a small 5lb pork butt tomorrow. It's cold here in New England and I noticed my wsm struggle a few weeks back when I smoked a 10 lb brisket so I was wondering if I use my kettle to smoke the pork butt or simply use sand in my wsm? To be honest I haven't smoked in my weber kettle so I may...
