    Smoked Turkey - My first go!!

    Awesome! I think the skin turned out great. I feel like I could maybe get it just a bit crispier if I buttered between the breast and skin. Another problem was when I went to slice the breasts, the skin didn’t stay on, it just slid right off as I made my cuts. That may be a knife issue, though.

    Smoked Turkey - My first go!!

    No sugar in the rub. Just salt and pepper. And a butter, chipotle, ancho injection. Smoked at 225 for 2 hours, then 325 till up to temp and skin crispy. It wasn’t burnt.

    I’ll post pics! I’m gonna shoot for 160 breast, 180 dark meat. Give it a good 30 min rest after. I started 225 for a couple hours and about to crank to 325 to crisp skin and let it get to temp. Then after rest, I’m gonna drizzle with a piping hot herb butter with sage, rosemary, and Mexican...

    Smoked Turkey - My first go!!

    No I didn’t. It came pre brined. I injected the breasts with butter, ancho chili powder, chipotle chili powder, and salt. Then dry rub was just coarse salt and pepper!

    Brisket burgers

    Did a brisket a couple weeks ago and used my new meat grinder to use my trimmings for burgers! I always felt bad in the past about throwing out all those trimmings. The burgers turned out great. Thawed them out about halfway in the fridge, then thawed the rest of the way in my offset cook...

    Hello from Kansas!

    Excited to get home from work tonight so I can get my pit going! Planning an all nighter on my BellFab offset for a 14 pound Packer Brisket. Just put up a TV in my garage and a cushioned patio furniture sectional so I can lounge and rest during the cook. Happy to be here!
