    Overnight Pork Butt questions

    Mine are off. Had to hack a chunk off of one of them to take out to my in-laws, 85 and 90 years old and still in great shape. Then ripped them apart and letting them cool a bit before I pull them. Don't want to burn my little fingers. I'll put them in a foil pan, cover them, then put them...

    Overnight Pork Butt questions

    Mine are sitting at around 165. Hit a stall around 2 this morning. Appear to be pushing through now. FYI I'm going on the cooking graph on my Meaters. I slept like a log. Oh and I don't wrap mine to push through the stall. I just let it push through on its own. I don't like what the wrap...

    Overnight Pork Butt questions

    I'm just going to jump in here. I just put a couple of butts on 15 minutes ago. Take what you want and forget the rest. I don't cook to time, I cook to temp. I'll cook these all night at around 215. Take them to an IT of 190. I'm figuring around 14 hours or so. Maybe more, maybe less. I...

    Worst Beer…

    I don't care for IPA's but that is a personal preference. Some really bad beers I've had: Billy Beer Texas Pride M*A*S*H Meister Brau Yes I'm old and I'm sure there are more but my memory fails me at the moment.

    Still learning this pellet grill

    Controller was set at 250 to hold 215-220 actual pit temp. Smoke tube is over in the general vicinity of the TC but I've had the same variation without the smoke tube so that isn't the problem.

    Still learning this pellet grill

    Had a great taste and texture. I just like more bark on my briskets. Just need to experiment a little. I never wrap on my offset. I just think I need to plan on a 2 hour stall for length of cook. This one hit 205 in about 9 hours. Stall lasted about half an hour before I wrapped then pushed...

    Still learning this pellet grill

    Still trying to get the hang of this pellet grill after 40 years using an offset. I'll get there eventually. Picked up a trimmed brisket flat the other day. Used spicy brown mustard as binder then rubbed with Himalayan pink salt, coarse ground black pepper, paprika, onion powder, and garlic...

    WiFi meat probe advice.

    I went ahead and ordered the GrillEye Max. Thought I'd give it a try. If I don't like it I can send it back. I'll let you know how it works. Plan to do a brisket flat this weekend.

    WiFi meat probe advice.

    I'm in the market for a new wifi meat probe set-up. I've narrowed it down to Fireboard 2, Thermoworks Signals, and one I haven't seen discussed before. The GrillEye Max from the BBQ Guys. They are all similar in price. Does anyone have any thoughts that might help me decide? I'm leaning...

    Breaking out of the norm.

    Yeah I knew the high heat would knock the smoke down. Was just odd that I could taste it in the pepperoni but not the crust. Maybe has something to do with the fat. I don't know.

    College Station, Texas

    I've gotten to know Gary personally over the past few years. He is indeed a class act. We both enjoy a glass of fine wine at one of our local watering holes on occasion and also do get in a round of golf every now and then. Hopefully more now that he's retired.

    Breaking out of the norm.

    I tasted the pepperoni and it did have a hint of smoke flavor. I have eaten pizza done on a BGE and the crust had a smokey flavor. Didn't notice in this one. Maybe because it was frozen at the start.

    Breaking out of the norm.

    Decided to branch out a little. Never cooked a pizza on a smoker before but thought I'd give it a try. Let's not get carried away, I bought a frozen DiGiorno's pepperoni. Moved all the pepperoni to one side because it's not my favorite. It is my wife's. Piled on some leftover chopped...
