    Weekday Pork Butts

    I'm going to run it back and give this another shot tomorrow. After work, I’ll swing by the store to pick up a few fresh pork butts. I also need to grab some more rub since I ran out last time. Got any favorites you'd recommend? I've learned a few things from the last round that I’m planning...

    Weekday Pork Butts

    Well the tale of the day ends in disaster. 😭 The left pork bit was so soft it broke a part when I went to move it out of the pan it was smoked in to the pan it was going to rest in. I had both pork butts sitting on the frot shelf of the smoker and as I went to back to get on last piece of the...

    Weekday Pork Butts

    The butts are at 203 and 196 after a little over over 13 hours. I bumped the smoker temp to 260 at about the 12th hour. While the butts are still going I grilled some chicken and potatoes for dinner. It was a very full delicious smelling patio this evening.

    Weekday Pork Butts

    I have never tried to capture the drippings before. In Jeff's book he suggested catching it in a pan and adding it back in like you suggested. I am excited to see how it adds to the flavor.

    Weekday Pork Butts

    At a little over 11 hours one probe was at 203 and one was at 206. I decided to use an instant temp to double check and both were at less than 200. The one at 206 was noticably not probe tender on the middle. I re adjusted my probes and locked them back up on the smoker for some more time. Here...

    What's up with that box, of what looks like charcoal, you have in there?

    My first time using a pellet smoker

    Looks great. I just got a pellet smoker as well more for ease of use, less set up and clean up. I have been a fan so far.

    Picnic Pork Shoulder...

    I just started a butt this morning and noticed this post. What an exciting read! It looks great! I hope mine turns out great today as well.

    Last Weekend's Chicken Breast

    Forgot to get this up earlier. On Sunday I marinated some chicken breasts in a garlic lime marinade and threw them on the pellet smoker. These turned out much better then the first chicken breasts I did on the pellet smoker. Probably a combo of the marinade, a lower temp and I started running...

    Weekday Pork Butts

    I am doing a few pork butts on my pellet smoker for the first time today, and the first time in a long time. This is one of the reasons I wanted a pellet smoker, the ease of use to set up quick for long smokes. I rubbed them down with mustard and a PitBoss pulled pork rub I had last night before...

    Some Friday Night Ribs

    I threw some baby back ribs on the smoker while I was working yesterday afternoon. They maybe could have used another hour on the smoker but we were hungry and they were still very tasty. I used a Famous Dave's rib rub and we liked it. I'm thinking about making up my own run next time I smoke...

    Bacon Wrapped Pickles

    As n appetizer to some French Dips I made in the crockpot today I tried making some bacon wrapped pickles on the PitBoss Pellet Smoker. I wrapped the pickles in bacon and seasoned them with some BBQ Rub. I threw them in the PitBoss at 350 for about 30 to 40 minutes.

    Bottom round

    I do the similar as above. I give it a run a few hours before the smoke. Then I smoke at around 230 for a few hours. I aim for an internal of the mow 120. I pull it and wrap it in foil for a bit the slice and eat. It is an easy meal we like. I will usually throw on a side like Green Bean...

    First Ribs On The Pellet Smoker

    The Pirate Water was so so. I will stick with my Caymen Jacks for canned Margaritas. It was just a spice blend made up at a spice market in the KC farmers market. I don't think it is there any more. What do I get out of the upper rack? I am a dry rub not a sauce fan. :)

    First Ribs On The Pellet Smoker

    I felt like it had a good smoke flavor. I had picked up a bag of PitBoss Competition Blend pellets when I bought the PitBoss. They worked pretty well. I plan to look around town and see what else I can find for pellets based on some suggestions I have seen here

    First Ribs On The Pellet Smoker

    I threw some ribs on the my new PittBoss Pellet smoker for the first time today. I ran it at 230 and had them on there for about four and a half hours. I rubbed them with a rub I got at a spice shop in KC awhile back. It was really tasty but sadly it was the last of it. They came out really good...
