    Smoking butts for 300. OK to freeze in advance?

    I have never frozen a whole smoked butt.  I have, however, frozen pulled pork using my vacuum sealer.  The machine works really well and the pork reheats nicely. Richard

    Brining ribs

    I've never brined ribs of any type.  I smoke my spare ribs for 6 hours using the 3-2-1 method.  Never having smoke country style ribs I can't imagine them taking much longer than 6 hours to finish. Richard
