    bbq pork vs NC style vinegar

    Personally I don't use a sauce when eating good butt. We use our own rub and serve it dry with a choice of three sauces, two of which are of our own creation. One mustard and one tomato based. The other store bought makes me shudder is KC Masterpeice original which covers up the flavor of any...

    to pull or chop- i disagree

I really dont like the chopped as it is usually very chewy and not as eye appealing as the pulled. Also...

    Smoking Onions Question

    All these recipes sound so good. We cater a few parties and have found that if you clean up the onion and cut the top off wrap with foil and leave the top open and add a good rum ( dark ) or even blue carraco or a stout beer will be the talk of the party.. We keep em in the smoker for up to 4...

I use a log pit style smoker and find that I get the smoke ring deep into the meat from the low and slow method like 10 - 12 hrs, more than moisture in the wood. I use hickory whether it is green with bark or aged makes no noticable difference...
