I wouldn't worry. I insert the probe as I put the meat on. The bit about turning the smoker off for an hour is something else though. You need to get through the danger zone in a given time. I think in your case, you got through it in time.
I don't think pork ribs could look better then that! Wow!
If you're a Cosco meat guy, see if the Cosco you shop at has the round tip beef roasts. I've recently done a couple of those and they were fantastic. Now I have to check my Cosco for your ribs and have a whack at them. Super job on yours!
It's looking great! Those cukes are killers! I didn't do well with them this year. I tried to grow them while it was too cold. Florida has two all time record breaking cold winters so I got humbled on a few things. Now that it's smoking hot every day my okra and eggplant are pumping out the...
It looks like you nailed it. Smoky and juicy! Ribs have so far been my weak point. I need to work on that. Wish I had time to try them again over the weekend but when you are in the fishin' charter biz you don't get to play on the Holidays. Nice work Al and Judy.
Is that digital for 200.99 from Sears the wireless model (remote control)? If so that is a screaming deal. I don't regret paying 289.00 delivered from Amazon. Only had it a few months and have cooked a whole lot on it already. I would not want to be without it.
If your Costco is like mine you will probably be buying a pair of butts since they vac pack them two at time. I grabbed a couple 5+ pounders (in a single pack) on Sunday that will go on the smoke in the morning. Don't worry too much as they are the easiest thing I have found so far to smoke. I...
Pork butts are very forgiving. You simply can't screw them up as long as you get the temp through the danger zone on schedule. I have two Cosco butts that will marinate tonight and then be tossed into the MES in the morning. After my my humbling experience with my first brisket yesterday, it's...
I don't know if I'm an oddball or if others also enjoy smoking them a lot less done then the 205* pull temps that seem so popular. I did one a few weeks ago that actually had some pink in it and it was amazing. The texture and flavor was wonderful! Maybe I was just lucky with nice piece of meat...
I agree. I sure get the flavor with my MES 30" digital. I did screw up my first attempt at brisket yesterday with it but I don't blame the MES. It was just a tough piece of buffalo I got from Cosco. A 2.7 pound piece took about 11 hours to get to 182* IT so it was dry. Even so the flavor is...
I bought a little (2.85 lbs.) brisket at Cosco today to get my feet wet with smoking one in my MES 30".
Good luck with yours. Come back and post your results. Not sure when mine will get smoked. I bought two lovely pork butts today too since I need a pulled pork fix.
Just so you know how to compensate, I agree with you. Little in my world is perfect. In fact I can't think of anything that I own that is close to perfect but I feel blessed for what I have and I think you are double blessed with your skills and abilities. Keep refining things and maybe you will...
They really are pretty and I hear what you are saying. I have been blessed in that my Sweetie has come around to realizing that rare meat has better flavor. Things didn't start out that way but I think my love of grilling an getting some smoke flavor into foods went a long way in bringing her...
