    Another Shoulder question

    Smokin, thanks but this piece of meat is not cooked in any way. Its from Tyson and called pork shoulder picnic. I guess I will just smoke with the mesh on it. Thanks about Sams club, forgot to go there yesterday to check.

    Another Shoulder question

    For some reason I can't find a Butt here in the OKC area. All I could get was a picnic shoulder from wal-mart. Do I smoke it like a Butt? Also it comes with a pop-up probe which I will discard, however it is wrapped in a mesh, do I take the mesh off? not sure if it will hold its shape without...

    Beef Tongue?

    In the early 80's I had a job during summer break from school, a co-worker from Mexico brought tamales his wife made. They were delicious! After I ate them he told me the meat was "beef tongue", she pressure cooked them first. Have not had any since.

    Sunday Ribs

    OK guys and Gals, its Sunday and had to smoke a slab. I did do the 3 2 1 method, turned out great. I did brine in kosher and some brown sugar overnight. Then a rub and a squirt of evoo,applejuice and red wine. Forgot, just foiled the fresh corn in butter, soy and put in the smoker for an hour.

    No Winner for Brisket Throwdown! (yet)

    Well we finally had dinner, I just put the foiled brisket back in the smoker without any smoke for 3 hours at 200 degrees then let it rest for 30 minutes. It did turn out great, however after all this smoking not a lot of smoke ring and it was rather dark on the outside? Wife loved it but...

    No Winner for Brisket Throwdown! (yet)

    Thanks guys, well had to go sleep last night. The brisket hit around 195 so I took it out and wrapped in a blanket but had to just let it cool so we could go to bed and put in the fridge. Now I need a good way to reheat so we can eat it for dinner tonight. I guess in the past I was not cooking...

    No Winner for Brisket Throwdown! (yet)

    Bubba, we had a large packer brisket. I cut off the thin side (the flat?) for my wife to cook and I took the bigger fat side (the point?) not sure yet of the BBQ lingo. Well its 8:00 pm and its at 186 so not too much longer.

    No Winner for Brisket Throwdown! (yet)

    Thanks you all, but this is frustrating, its 7:40 pm here I have the brisket foiled and its still only 184 degrees, when I foiled it, it looked very black, I did spray it every hour or so with JD apple juice and wine. I still plan to put it in a cooler wrapped in a blanket when it hits 195...

    Newbie Thanks you all

    Thanks Ultra, we love horse radish with the prime rib so I got some fresh ground and mixed with some creme fraiche and it was great! next time i will take it out at 120 degrees and let it sit till 125, we thought 130 was a tad over cooked for our taste. We also warmed the baked potatoes in the...

    Newbie Thanks you all

    Guys and Gals, only been on the forum a few days but have learned a lot. I have smoked for a long time but not to your level. Recently bought an electric smoker when my old one finally gave out. Thought I would share some pictures also. Tonight I decided to cook a small Prime Rib roast in the...

    BBQ vs Finishing sauce

    May be a silly question but what is the difference between a finishing sauce and BBQ sauce? I read the ingredients for ranger72's finishing sauce from the sticky on the beef forum and it almost seems like a BBQ sauce. Thanks
