    silly question about pork butts and cooking time

    I've read post by people who did 3 or 4 pounders and they seem to come out all right. I've never done one much smaller than 5 pounds , but it's all about the internal temp of the meat anyway. When it hits 200-205 or so , it should pull apart nicely. I would think a small hunk would cook pretty...

    silly question about pork butts and cooking time

    James , what kind of smoker do you have? Also , I would second what njfoses said....crank the heat a bit. 250-275 will get you done quicker and your pork will come out great.

    You are also a pretty funny guy. I enjoy your posts. Seems to me you're also pretty smart at smoking meats .

    What's your occupation?

    Quite a few linemen on here , I notice. I was an underground cable splicer for many years. The bucket guys called us sewer linemen. I never was a pure trouble man , but we did on call nights at my utility. Rolled up on some nasty pole hits.

    Beef Ribs ???'s

    yeah , like Dave says , that's in the ballpark. but if they are meaty , one of them is a meal if you have some filling sides , so its not outrageous per plate. serve them with garlic mashed spuds and a big ol ear of corn.    get you some nice crusty French bread too. a nice beer or a glass of...

    Beef Ribs ???'s

    The big ones are back ribs , I believe. To me , they are not readily available anywhere except a butcher shop. My supermarkets that I go to only have them at the holidays when prime rib is popular like Xmas and Easter All beef ribs are good smoked . You will probably find short ribs with...

    Split Chicken Breasts w/q-view

    Quote: so many people you talk to are squeamish about meat on the bone....they'll say "oh , chicken breast is so bland"..and you tell them to get the split breasts ...much better flavor....and you hear " eeww , I don't like chicken on the bone....too gross" ........give me a break..... buncha...

    Cutting "Notch" In WSM Drum For Temp Probe Wires

    And see post #13 why the notch is a miles better way to go. I have a grommet on my WSM and once the wire is trapped in the grommet , you are out of options. The notch allows the probe wire to come out and be removed with the rack and set aside with no disturbance to the meat probe. Not trying...

    Split Chicken Breasts w/q-view

    I really like the split breasts rather than boneless. Much more moist and flavorful. Yours look great.
