Ok here is another question.
I have been monitering the cook temps on the hour and an hour and a half ago I was at 187. I figured that meant I was close to the end, and so I put a few more things on (chicken and jalepenos) that I thought would go for a couple hours. This was the first time I...
gonna be pulling.
Meat therm. now says 142 and I been cooking for only 2 hours.
It just seemed to jump up so quickly.
Water pan is full and all three bottom vents (WSM 22) are only opened to about 25%.
I am doing my first butt as we speak. I'm pretty excited but I am wondering about some unexpected things that have come up.
First was the difference between my maverick and the WSM lid...a 60 degree difference. Mav reads 260 while the lid says 200.
The other is that the meat internal temp...
Thanks guys this has been real helpful. I will try and do some pics and get some critique back on how I did. This is a great site and I have learned a lot.
This will be my first attempt at pulled pork. Just doing an 8lb by itself. How much wood should I start off with, and then how often and how much wood should I add from there?
Thanks for all help.
Interesting. I have a WSM 22 in.
However, A couple of years ago I did a smoke on a grill where I set up an indirect zone. I used the rack and I didn't think to rotate or flip them. When I checked on them, the tops were WAY overcooked. So it struck me that it was hotter.
On the other hand...
Thanks. I don't know why, but I kinda figured that if you used the mustard then there was no use in applying rub the night before. I just assumed I guess that the mustard sort of inhibited the rub from real penetration. I guess I took it as one or the other.
Thanks...can I ask another question?
I seen people advocate using a mustard coat application before the rub.
If I were to do this, would an overnight in the fridge with the rub still be useful, or would the mustard block too much of the penetration? I have gathered that the mustard coating is...
1) From your experience, how much difference is there in letting the rub settle in over night vs. applying it right before the cook? Is there any significant notice there?
2) I see a lot of people here advocating a wrap with foil for a part of the cook. I have never done this...is this to...
Those look awesome, and I second the fella who asked for the rub recipe because that skin looks awesome.
Another question...I figured that foiling the chicken for an hour would soften the skin...how'd you keep that from happening?
Again...that chicken is incredible, great job.
