    My Saturday 2nd butt - w/qview

    7:25 Crap! Ran outta gas. Luckily I caught it pretty quick. Got the tank changed out and fired it back up. Meat is at 121. Rotated and sprayed. I was going to take another pic but it looks pretty much the same, thanks to the paprika. Starting to rain again.

    1st Butt w/ Qview

    Yeah, I finished my last one in the oven and it came out great. Really looking forward to see how this one comes out since it's highly based on what I've learned here.

    My Best Ribs Ever

    good lookin stuff! on the camera... if it has a macro setting, try using it. Otherwise, back up at least 3 feet and zoom in all the way. Make sure the flash is set to always fire. Most cameras can only focus things over 3ft. Of course that varies from camera to camera but that little tip...

    My Saturday 2nd butt - w/qview

    6:55 - another spray and check. 113 degrees. Smoke still looking ok. Light. That's one thing I didn't know before coming here. You want light smoke, not billowing clouds of it. TBS

    My Saturday 2nd butt - w/qview

    6:25 Ok, checking it and temp is now 102. Spun it around again and gave it a good spray with the bottle. Still smoking good so no changes with the wood for now. Grill is running at about 250.

    My Saturday 2nd butt - w/qview

    5:30 - Rotated the meat 180 degrees. Temp is at 76 now. Hickory is still smoking good, nice and low but the apple has petered out. Going to add another small pouch of apple.

    My Saturday 2nd butt - w/qview

    According to various posts on this site, I'm going to us the Cpt Morgan's spiced rum and apple juice mix. Going three to one. So, 1.5 cups apple juice, .5 cup rum to fit into my 2 cup Chinese spray bottle. That booze is expensive btw.... 4:37 - Apple was smoking a bit much so I closed the...

    My Saturday 2nd butt - w/qview

    Wasn't going to do this until tomorrow, but as usual, plans get changed by females. Please be advised that I am still a total newb at this so I'm just reporting my progress. Feel free to flog me where necessary. So I guess I'll do a play by play...because I have nothing better to do and...

    Paprika. What's the big deal?

    Thanks folks. I will try to locate some real stuff and give it another shot before I write it off. I will add this to the list of culinary No-No's. No pre-ground pepper. No pre-ground Parmesan. No generic paprika. No grilling/smoking without beer.

    Paprika. What's the big deal?

    Ok, that's kind of what I was thinking/hoping. Is it generally available locally in large markets or is it pretty much a mail order item?

    Paprika. What's the big deal?

    It seems as though most rubs out there use paprika as a major component. I do not like the stuff. To me, it has very little taste. And the taste it does impart, I don't care for. Now, this may well be a case of me using 'cheap' paprika (as pictured above) from the store as opposed to high...

    First ABT's QView

    Tried my first small batch of ABTs tonight out of boredom. Pretty simple and turned out nice. Used halved Jalapenos. Mixed a little bit of diced ham into some onion and chive cream cheese. Topped with a pinch of sharp cheddar and a piece of thick bacon. Smoked with hickory at about 300 deg...

    First Butt QView

    Thanks folks. Already planning one for this weekend. Trying to decide on a rub I like. Most of the popular ones seem to have paprika in them. For some reason, and I don't know why, I just don't like the stuff. Unfortunately, I've already looked int he ABT forum and am having a go at that...

    First Butt QView

    Here's a couple shots of my first butt. Done without much direction, but still turned out pretty darn good. After reading on here for a few days, I can't wait to try another one! Simple salt, pepper, brown sugar rub. Hickory smoked. Oven finished. Absolute minimalist approach by a true...
