    good bbq joints in new england ?

    I'm a big Bison County fan - the beer selection is also great there. Never had a bad meal, everything is always great. Fireflys in Marlboro isn't quite as good but still satisfies if I happen to be out in that area. I was sad when they closed down the Quincy location - used to be a nice escape...

    Hey come on , New England smokers

    Just joined up, good to be here fellas! I'm cooking in Southie, most Saturdays you can find me right out on Dorchester St running a Brinkmann ECB next to my Chevy pickup. Always on the lookout for new recipes and techniques. To say I am chomping at the bit to smoke meats and watch the Pats would...

    Question on the Minion Method

    Don't get discouraged, it's all part of the learning curve! Fire tending is probably the most important factor in turning out great Q. Anyone can lay a nice rub on a quality piece of meat and cook it to a predetermined temp. What seems to separate the elites from the beginners is the fire...

    Thi week' action - couple yardbird and armadillo eggs, with gumbo to follow - Q View included

    Birds took quite a while - over 5 hours at around 325. I was probing after about 3 hours to cook to temp, not time. The breasts hit a wicked stall around 155 for a couple hours but I pushed through. The meat was still very tender and moist, not dried out at all which was a pleasant surprise...

    Thi week' action - couple yardbird and armadillo eggs, with gumbo to follow - Q View included

    Hi All, This week I scored a couple whole chickens at a great price, and decided to smoke em off on my ECB. Looking to run 300-325 with a mix of apple wood and cherry chunks. Rubbed my birds down with a bunch of seasonings from the cabinet, and made up some armadillo eggs (jalapenos with cream...

    Boneless Pork shoulder - first attempt this weekend! Que-view as it happens!

    I foiled after about 12 hours, hoping to speed things along. Usually with the bigger cuts I'll just let em roll unfoiled because I like a good crusty bark. In this case, I was trying to use it as a time saving crutch. If I had it to do over, I'd probably foil after 4-5 hours in the smoke...

    Boneless Pork shoulder - first attempt this weekend! Que-view as it happens!

    I hear you man, Like I said, yesterday was an 8.44 lb'er for me and it was only 177 after 17 hours in a steady 275 pit. It doesn't seem to add up at all. I'd rule out 1 and 2. I don't think a bit of twine compacting it, nor the rub layer would have an impact beyond the first hour or so. If I...

    Boneless Pork shoulder - first attempt this weekend! Que-view as it happens!

    The variability in times is crazy with pork shoulders sometimes. My first smoke on my ECB, I ran in the 250-270 range the whole way and got a 9 lb bone-in picnic to 195F in about 9 hours. Yesterday I ran in the same temperature range with an 8.44 lb Boston butt that I started at 745 am. I threw...

    This week's smoke - Boston butt in progress with Q-Views

    She hit two lengthy stalls and took forever but eventually came out pretty darn great for a late night snack. The sweet potato chips were outstanding.
