    Smoked butts - is it just me?

    And give SoFlaQue's finishing sauce a try. Best thing I ever did for my butts. You'll be glad ya did!

    Spares w/Q-view!

    A couple of days late, but, I had to respond and say, nice job! Those ribs did look good. Question - you spray with apple juice and brown sugar. How do you keep the nozzle from plugging up with sugar????

    stalled brisket

    Seems like an awful long time for a 12 lb. brisket. Are you sure your thermometers are accurate? Most briskets will stall around 165, but a brisket your size should be up and going. Other than that, unless you got one tough old cow, I'm at a loss. Wrap in foil, double check the therms, and wait...

    Heavy Traffic

    Well, I envy your view! I live in a rural area, but city life is moving in. My hope is to retire somewhere I can see that kind of view! Thanks for sharing!

    A little wind today

    Got the smaller butt wrapped and in the cooler. The second is almost there. The brisket has joined the party. A couple of fatties to add, and I'm on my way.......

    here is my first attempt at a brisket ( with a little help from my friend )

    Looks great. Must say, I've never seared a brisket, but may be something to try. My mouth is watering, just looking at the pics! Brookshires here has briskets (packers) for $1.27 a pound this week. Even for flats, don't know if I could go $4.00!!!!

    A little wind today

    So I thought I'd do a couple of butts. Hopefully, everything will hold off until I have them done. Also have a brisket in the fridge for in the morning. Had a can of chicken broth, so I injected the brisket with that (one of those ""what the heck" moments), and rubbed it down in Harley's. The...

    Chuck Roast (with q view)

    I'm a little late seeing this, but that roast sure did look good. Mushrooms are one of my favorite non-meat foods. I woulda been glad to have a plate of that!

    Thanks to my butcher

    We had prime rib today, for the first time in longer than I can remember. Rib eyes were on sale for $5.99 - I called and asked if he had any prime rib. Yeah he did, and said he'd have it ready for me after I got off work. Got to the store, and he had me an 11 lb. prime rib - at $5.99 a lb. Cut...

    Grilled chops today

    Had a bone in loin in the freezer, and a package of sirloin chops. Cut the loin, and added the slices to the chops. A simple marinade of soy sauce. Salt and pepper added when it went on the grill. Homemade aus gratin taters and some black eye peas. Haven't grilled in long time. Kinda enjoyed it...

    BBQ-U Raichlens Clod Roast

    I have heard of them, and saw the same advice.....but, I've not been able to find one to try, yet. That is one big hunk of meat, and I'd like to give it a shot at least once. Let's see - 18/20 lb. clod should be about 18-20 hours or so, or about 1 case of beer. Sounds like a weekend to me!

    What's your occupation?

    Late seeing this - been a cop for 23 years. The last 15 as Chief - small town - small department - not easy, not often well liked, but still a great job! 4.5 years to go and I can retire!!!!!

    Not really a joke...but

    Got that in my e-mail the other day. Thought about showing it to the city council here, but didn't figure they'd get it!

    Curing Chicken

    I'd be interested in pictures and the final results. Like the others, that's a long time to brine a chicken. I've never used instacure with poultry. Let us know what happens and how it turns out!

    whole hog

    Thanks guys - I figured it would be a long day/night. As long as it turns out well and we have a good time doing it, time is not a problem. When I get the hog and the time to do this, I'll be sure to post some pics. Appreciate the info!!!!
