    Pork Butt. Room temp or from Fridge to Smoker? And is it more about internal temp than time?

    Pork Butt. Room temp or from Fridge to Smoker? And is it more about internal temp than time?

    I plan to have a temp probe in the thickest part of the meat (no bone contact) from the beginning. I figured that was why I got the latest and greatest probes for meat temp. I also have a secondary probe. Should I use both to have consistency or one is just fine?

    Pork Butt. Room temp or from Fridge to Smoker? And is it more about internal temp than time?

    I plan on seasoning it the day prior with a mustard layer then the goods. Wrapping it up and placing it in the fridge for 16-24hrs. Good to know, I will just place it from the fridge to the smoker. Trying to achieve tender pulled pork. Probe tender? I'm assume that is the effortless probing of...

    Yes, perhaps I missed the correct temp and didn't place the probe into the meat before it was too late. Well I have a WIFI thermometer on the way (ThermoPro Twin Temp). I will be attempting a pork shoulder on Sunday.

    Appreciate the advice. But why did the probe thermometer not reach 165? Perhaps I cooked the sausage too long and it did achieve it, but I was not around to check it? Are Probe thermometers less accurate in smoker? Wifi probes, any suggestions before I just "pick one". Again, I'm setting the...

    These were store-bought chicken sausages. I do have a temp probe, which I used, but the temp never achieved 165, after several hours I removed one of the links and it was dry as dirt. It is a wired probe. I'm assuming I burned out all the fat and moisture and was just measuring heated air within...

    Hello everyone, Josh here from Louisana. Got a Bradley smoker for xmas, and ruined my first piece of meat. All good, live and learn. Smoked some store-bought chicken sausages too long and too high of heat (225 for 3.5 hours). Any suggestions on how to smoke some chicken sausage (degrees and...
