smokey: I'm doing three racks of ribs and chicken legs tomorrow so I plan on having some leftovers for the game. I'll probably still be feeling a little...ahem..."under the weather" at 11 a.m. new years day! Plus I'm a little worried about this one. Oh well at least...
So I'm going to do my first ever ABT'S on New Years eve and I was looking through this forum and getting hungry of course, so I grabbed what's left of Aunt Peggy's Famous Cheese Ball she gave me for Christmas and went diving in when it hit me...
Should I use this cheese in my ABT???? I worry a...
This happened to me. The 140's SUCKED and I actually lost six degress when in them. It was my first smoke. I'm guessing my thermometers were off too and I wasn't cooking as hot as I thought I was. Man...those 140's will drive a guy to drink! (as if I need an excuse)
Hello. I have a question that to some might seem like a no-brainer. I had my first smoke yesterday and it was a little frantic but it all turned out okay...long story. Anyway for my question:
I finished up my pork shoulder in a foil pan covered with foil until it reached 200 in the smoker...
I'm with Markyque....thinking you would want to add it after you re-heat it. Of course I am no expert but it tastes good on re-heated pulled pork...just did it today.
Nice glad it worked for you. What size was your butt and how long did it take to get to what final temperature? I had a long haul with a 4 pounder that took 10 hours to get to 200. I'm wondering if my thermometer on my smoker was off, or if my meat thermometer was off. Wondering how yours fared?
I thought the inside was a little dry and it was tougher to pull than I had expected it would be. The bark was really good, however, and was not burnt so I dunno. Tasted great but not totally satisfied. So it's either that my thermometer on my smoker is bad and runs higher than the actual...
I just did my first smoke on this smoker and a few notes:
Everything went very good, but the thermometer is off. Waiting on my dual thermometer.
AS far as flare ups, I wrapped my soaked wood chunks in foil and cut a slit in the top for smoke to release and threw them in. I only had one flare...
Thanks JarJar! I had a thermo for the meat, but I am still waiting on my Maverick smoking thermometer to come in the mail. Once I get that I suppose I'll be able to get a better reading of my temp inside the smoker. You are probably right there is probably something wrong there with the thermos.
This sauce made such an enormous difference in the taste of the pork I will never, ever pull pork without it. Bye Bye BBQ sauce forever. Don't need you no more. Thanks for sharing!
Hello Everyone--
huskerfan1414 here coming at you from Nebraska. Got my first smoker for Christmas from my fiance. It's a Masterbuilt dual-fuel electric smoker and after my first smoke I'm very pleased with it. I've been lurking the boards since before I even got my smoker and felt the need...
"I think these are the best baked beans I've ever had." -My lovely fiance. I didn't even talk up the beans. I didn't even ask her if she liked them. She loves baked beans, these were her favorite ever. I'm in agreement. Better than Jack Stacks, which were my previous favorite. This was my...
