    Nice Birthday Gifts

    Today is my birthday and my 2 daughters hooked me up. They are both great listeners. New boning knife. And tickets to Doobie Brothers concert.

    Anyone tries these?

    Definitely had a distinct smell of something. Not sure whiskey, or just charred oak. My first smoke with oak at all so probably just that. I am new to smoking and until this cook I have only smoked with pecan or cherry

    Anyone tries these?

    Although I am very new and haven’t used just oak as of yet other than this. I agree. I felt $10 for the 8# box was fair though. Quite a bit in the box

    Anyone tries these?

    Great flavor. I haven’t tried plain oak yet only pecan and cherry. So guessing similar to regular oak, but don’t know.

    Great deal on pork shoulder

    I only buy the shoulder for pulled pork. Not sure you can do that with the ham although I definitely have to try that smoking it because I love ham as well.

    First Brisket Trim. Howd I do?

    The meat itself was scrumptious. The rub that was still wet on exterior I didn’t love but easily rubbed excess off.

    Next Cook 1st Brisket

    End result was extremely good. Tender, juicy. Did not love the rub I used. Next I gotta try just coarse pepper and salt. Very satisfied overall and learned a lot. Thanks to all who shared knowledge. Tossed on a couple sausages. 45 minutes and best Ive ever eaten

    Today I sous vide some boneless pork chops cut from roast. Seasoned and cooked 150 for 2 1/2 hours. Seared in skillet basted with butter and covered in Kentucky Rebel Scum blackberry skirmish glaze. Taste amazing but a little tough. Wondering too hot? Too short/long? Skillet too long. 3ish...
