hasn't shrunk that much. the picture makes it look smaller than it is. im cooking a bit higher than usual, 130-150 . ive read many post that do this . i hope its ok.
hope i can go to bed not too late, gotta get up first thing and tackle one of those butts.
So i set up the weber for serpentine method. after an hour smoker only at 165 so had to change plans last minute. pulled out the smokenator and got it set up. the only prob was the meat went on at 3:30.
Heres the first butt-eye roast after 5 hours. IT at 164. no stall to report thank...
Well the meat is in.
2 boston butts and 3 butt eye roasts
Nice Butt! 9 3/4 lb
Butt eye roast. Never tried before. the best 2 shoulder muscles tied together. less waste than a butt. Lots of marbeling.
Set up for serpentine method. have only tested it a couple of times in warmer...
ive got one of those clay patio chimney 's ill set up near smoker. its actually handy , keeps you warm and you can make charcoal for the smoker!
as far as hot drinks, those all sound yummy. kinda broke so think i have to stick with coffee and tea.
i am not freezing the fresh meat, i know it is very fresh. butcher gets it delivered and processes it today.
I am talking about freezing the cooked meat. maybe this isnt needed?
i am going to freeze the meat i cook today and tomorrow. the rest i will just reefer it. I am serving Saturday.

Well I'm on my way to my butcher to pick up 38 lbs of pork. 2 Large Boston Butts and 4-5 Butt Eye Roasts. The Butt eye is something my butcher prepares and suggested I try it. It is the 2 best muscles in the butt and picnic tied together. No bone and less waste. I'll be using my little...
lots of cherry, oak and maple here. all great . cherry my fav . smells great while smoking. white oak also great smell , also good for fuel wood. maple great mellow vanilla aroma
loving my smokenator!!
the only prob i have is the natural briquettes i use (Maple leaf natural hardwood briquettes) burn quite fast. im lucky if i can get 4 hours out of a load of coals.
iv started light only 6 briquettes which helps a little.
any suggestions out there?
I have a 6lb brisket flat i got at the meat auction at my favorite butcher. got it for half price cause nobody was bidding. just wondering if i can divide the recipe in half for the brine?
Tried pastrami once but like the taste of montreal smoked meat better. cant wait to try.
Happy Smoke!
