    Questions about Injection vs Mop recipes for Pork Butt

    Wow, you guys are great!  So, I'm thinking now about no injection.  I'm going to have to smoke these butts the day before (maybe 2) and reheat, so I will take the juices from the pan once I transfer the butt towards the end and use those juices when I reheat in the crockpot on Thanksgiving...

    Questions about Injection vs Mop recipes for Pork Butt

    Thanks! So in your experience, would you still inject but maybe spend less time on the mop and not do the syrup?

    I'm smoking my first pork butts for Thanksgiving, so with friends and family involved these have to be good haha!!!  I've done ribs several times, usually go with an apple juice and Jack Daniels 50/50 mix for my spritz with some sprinkled on brown sugar about half way through.  Love the bark...

    Thanksgiving Smoking....in over my head!

    Now that is a plan!  I could seriously manage that.  I could take a half day on Wednesday before Thanksgiving and get the butts done that evening and then smoke the turkey next day.  I don't know why I didn't think of that! If using the crockpot to reheat, how exactly should I do that?  would I...

    Thanksgiving Smoking....in over my head!

    Sounds good to me...I tend to over complicate and over flavor.... Definitely brining the turkey in a mixture of apple cider, water, brown sugar, salt, and pepper corns.  I usually spritz my ribs with cider and jack every 30 minutes, so I planned on doing the same with the turkey, but 30 minutes...

    Thanksgiving Smoking....in over my head!

    I've only been smoking for about a year, and I've been appointed by the family to start a new smoking tradition on Thanksgiving.  I don't mind, heck I'm in love with smoking at this point, but I think I might be over my head here. On the menu: 2 Turkey Breasts 2 Pork Shoulders 1 Smoked...

    Can't get ribs right, what am I doing wrong.

    I'd eat 'em anico1613!!! haha How often do you open the lid to check on them?  I've smoked ribs a grand total of 4 times and have similar results as you.  The flavor is spot on, and I've been able to nail down that aspect in just a few tries.  The second time I smoked, I ran out of wood and had...

    Hello from upstate SC...

    Hey er'body, I'm JB from SC.  I'm 29 and have been smoking about a year.  I'm a much more proficient griller, and have been labeled the grill master from friends and family (aren't we all?) but smoking is a rewarding challenge that I'm slowly becoming addicted to. Nice to meet you all and I'm...
