    Daughters wedding for 200...pulled pork, plan good?

    Thanks for the continued replies! I'm soaking it all in. I cooked 2 butts a couple of weeks ago and pulled them. I then put in meat trays, covered and put in fridge. 1 tray I used the next day and reheated in the oven at 225 to get it to 140 and held it there for 20 minutes. It tended to dry...

    This may be a silly question....but are you buying choice brisket or select?

    Daughters wedding for 200...pulled pork, plan good?

    I'm not making the jambalaya...it's going to be a lot though. Probably, at least a 18-20 gallon pot full, if not bigger. There are a lot of big eaters...but they drink too, so don't know how much the alky will affect them.

    Daughters wedding for 200...pulled pork, plan good?

    Wow... awesome information. SQWIB and thanks to all, I'm feeling a bit better about not ruining her day. Looks like I'm going to be begging people to keep some pulled pork in their fridges and not tasting it beforehand!

    Daughters wedding for 200...pulled pork, plan good?

    Thanks DSailor.. That is an option. I'm going to smoke 2 butts for this Sunday. I'll pull one and put in finishing sauce, cover and put in fridge and leave it until Tuesday. Put in oven at 200*...usually about how long til it heats up and do you stir up the meat while waiting it to heat up...

    Your rear vent was open right? (I forgot one time I closed the vent and put the cover on, took cover off, but forgot to open rear vent) I have no problem running mine at low temps, and it's 100 plus 100% humidity here. For chickens at 275 or 300 with an empty pan, if I look at the knob from the...

    1st brisket goin..overnighter.

    Tradition..probably...too full to do anything, went to sleep at 7pm. Heard some fireworks is all. Everyone was happy with the food, especially my 74yr old Mom who usually is very picky. That made my day. My paw in law sliced it as brisket is and has been "his thing", so I learned a bit on that...

    1st brisket goin..overnighter.

    Didn't look the best... but it was super tender and great tasting. My fears were all for naught. Chicken was pretty dang good with the kickin chicken spice. Not the best photo as we piled it up.

    1st brisket goin..overnighter.

    Thanks for the info and photo jarjar..you happen to have a photo of one of your trimmed briskets?.. I trimmed quite a bit of fat off, but didn't go crazy as I wasn't sure what was what ...I tried turning it over and still didn't figure it out. In that photo, do you cut straight down and/or...

    1st brisket goin..overnighter.

    Well.. I think I just ruined most of it because I couldn't tell where the point was. Here's the outcome.. I cut in pieces what I thought was the point and they are smokin while the other 2 pieces are resting. Thawing out pork now and will smoke that too so they can have something good to eat...
