Dumb question but I never thought about eggs before and that sounds great....do they get put on raw? I don't want to clean up egg from the smoker :) -

Got any pics to toss in as it goes on?
Hey all -
Did 14# of boston butts on friday, and though I should share.
Started at 10 AM and finished the foil at 4AM Sat. (225-230)
Threw in some towels and into a cooler until 10AM sat.
Smoked with Hickory and a little apple.
Sorry for the delay all...
So as I said, I pulled it wrapped and put in the oven for a couple hours at 250 and it came to 185. I left it wrapped in the foil and into a cooler it went for an hour. Wish it could have sit longer, but that was all I got.
Here it is after the rest:
Here it is...
Tell me about it....and thusly I pulled it, foiled dumped my mop on it and into the oven at 250 cuz I'm afraid it would be dry if I kept it in the smoker.
Update: 5 hours in and I'm stalled at 135 so no speed racers here Walking...
My fancy dancy smoke chute ran outta umph so I had to fire up another batch....got it going again though.
Well here we are at 3 hours into it. Temp is at 133 and I think it may be there for a while or climb real slow from now on.
Rich - What would you like to know?
Allright ladies and gents...here we go...were starting...
This is the beef with the seasoning...Wood is 90% Hickory, 10% Cherry, the baggie is Jeffs Rub and that Citrus Grill stuff is AWSOME....Try some on your yard birds and on Roma stuffed tomatoes....YUM....anyhow, here it is:
Here is...
AG - Semper Fi right back at ya bud.
Texas -
I plan on mopping every hr or so. Thanks for reminding me to post that....any good mops u wanna share?
Also, my pull at 175 is t foil till 185 then it's in the cooler...sorry I didn't clarify....
OK, after reading, reading and reading some more, I have decided to give my first run at a brisket. I've successfully smoked some butts, fatties, abt's, ribs and yard birds so the time has come to graduate...
My first attempt is a 5.5# and I'm figuring on starting tues at 6AM for a 6PM...
got some reallly good lookin Q going on there. As someone else suggested, don't forget the finishing sauce...that, in my opinion, really makes it so much better. Icant wait to see the finished product.
In case you need the link, here it is...
I'm the same way...worry about how long some things take. I just foiled early..as suggested and all turned out fine...I had an 8.5# take 17hrs from start to 200 deg finish. 8AM to 1 AM the next day.
any general insecticide would do, but do make sure that you stick to the carbamate family (Sevin should be fine). carbamates don't bioacumulate and disperse quickly. Just make sure you don't turn the tilled soil into a 'chocolate cake' with withe frosting... :)
