    Smoked butts - is it just me?

    Good Call! I admit I thought the same thing right away when I began to read this post. Deffinetly use more rub next time. I usually coat the roast one time with as much as I can get to stick, then let that start to soak up and get wet looking, then add another layer. MORE RUB! One other...

    Sure, add some pepper flakes! The habenaro and tobasco chilis coupled with the venison sausage could never have been spicy enough! LOL. Wish I could taste it. Sounds great! Dave

    Is My Butt Too Small???

    I've done 7lb 8lb and 9lb butts before and just recently I did 2 that were 3.7 lb each. The only diff I noticed besides the time it took for them to cook (6 hrs) was that there was not as much juice in the foil as I would have expected. I'm just atributing this to the fact that the was not as...

    To slice or pull...That is the question!

    What's your favorite way to serve up a brisket, sliced or pulled? I have never pulled one myself, nor have I ever been served pulled beef. I'm sure there are reasons to do it both ways. But what is YOUR FAVORITE? Dave

    Brisket - After the smoke question

    I'm with the goat. I slice the brisket and vacuum seal. THen when it's eatin time I boil in the bag. It comes out great! Since you are tailgaiting a camping stove would be needed. I've done it on my camp stove after a storm that killed the power and everything was wonderful. Dave

    $4.59/pound

    I'm not in your area but I see similar prices here in Omaha. If the brisket has been trimmed or is just the flat, it costs at least $3.99 per lb. When I get the whole packers cut, the price comes way down to around $1.69. I usually get a 12 lber for around $20.00 or so. Hope this helps. Dave

    What kind of knives are in your kitchen?

    A buddy of mine worked several years in the packing houses of Omaha. I took his advise and bought the Forchner (sp?) 7" boning knife for about $15. After that I got the matching chef's knife $25. they have the microban blades which is supposed to deter bacteria from living on the blades. I got...

    Did my first ABTs this weekend. Are there ever leftovers?

    I just made up my first batch of ABTs this weekend. Man were they awesome! I used jalepenos cut in half and stuffed with a mixture of chopped grilled chicken, pineaple and cream cheese, then wrapped in bacon. I had a hunch they would be good but OMG! They were fantastic! I had 20 pieces when...

    Rough time for 13.5 lb pork shoulder?

    Oh and it's individual pieces, not total weight.

    Rough time for 13.5 lb pork shoulder?

    Like you said, 1.5 hrs per pound is usually pretty close. I usually add 1 to 2 hrs of possible stall time to my smoking plan as well, just in case. Then let it rest 2 hrs. Have fun! Dave

    I'm going to look for this in Omaha. You haven't tried any yet? Smoke up a quick rack or two and let us know how they are! The last time I bought cheap ribs by the box they were the Danish Spares. And I got what I paid for. They pretty much blew. Hope these'r good! Thanks for the word. Dave

    Replay in Baseball starts Thurday

    I'm feelin that Tang, I can't argue that it would have been easier to swallow had it been started at the begining of the season rather than late. But I still think that there are benefits to this decision. Dave

    Replay in Baseball starts Thurday

    I don't think this is a bad thing at all. It is clearly only going to be used for questionable home runs. And as a CUBS FAN I need all I can get! Seriously though I apreciate the comissioner's opinion of not wanting to corupt the nature of the game, but I think they are using the replay...
