    Pulled pork injections

    I usually will inject 'em with apple juice mixed with some of my rub, and let that mixture sit for a couple hours with a few sage leaves floating in it before I inject it. I've also mixed-in some of my homemade chicken stock from time to time.

    Best Charcoal?

    Count me in the plain-ol Kingsford club. Like someone else said, it's consistent. You know what it's gonna' do, bag after bag. I've never liked the lump charcoal, I dont like the way it burns. Too inconsistent. Kingsford DOES produce alot of ash I guess, but I tend to be real attentive to the...

    A big butt and 2 racks - More qview- Update

    Hey, the ' warning ' would be considered if you gave any reason for issuing it. So I'm curious - what does ' the book ' say ?

    A big butt and 2 racks - More qview- Update

    I dont know what ' book ' your talkin' about, but after doin' this stuff for 25 years, I've never had any issues. Like I said, when it's cool and windy, like it's been around here all day, maintaining the temperature in an uninsulated smoker aint the easiest thing in the world. And I mean a REAL...

    A big butt and 2 racks - More qview- Update

    Well, here are the spares after about 4 hours , and the butt after 7 1/2 hours  ( 137 internal ) Meanwhile, the 130 year-old Boston Baked Beans recipe beans remain in a 200 degree oven gettin better and better. They'll take about 13 hours.

    A big butt and 2 racks - More qview- Update

    With temperatures outside here in northern Virginia gettin' chilly, the smoking-season is coming to an end. But there not chilly enough yet to stop me ! ( 50 degrees when I fired up the pit this morning at 4:00 am ) So I got an 8.7 pound shoulder, and 2 racks of spares in the pit. Yesterday...

    2nd attempt- pulled pork w/ q-view

    Well, now that I see the inside of the chamber, I'm guessing that none of the grates were with the smoker when you got it ? The original grates in the Bar B Chef are cast iron, and the chamber has 4 of 'em. The two you have on the bottom, and two on the top ( the smokestack comes down to about 3...

    2nd attempt- pulled pork w/ q-view

    Hey brother, if that Bar B Chef that's pictured is your smoker, it's far from an el cheapo. That's a damn good smoker, and better than anything you can buy at a hardware store these days ( the Bar B Chefs were sold by Barbeques Galore, and have been discontinued as far as I can tell ). In the...
