    Question about Smithfield Boston Butt Pork Roast's "self basting" brine...

    You guys are awesome, thanks for the advice and tips!  It does still have the bone in.  When I took it out of the cryovac package, it basically fell apart like that.  I'm going to Walmart in a bit to look for butcher's twine.  Hopefully they have some.  If not, i'll locate some tomorrow.

    Question about Smithfield Boston Butt Pork Roast's "self basting" brine...

    Hey @timberjet, I went to trim the butt and it ended up like this (see pics).  I did not make any cuts into the meat for it to look like this.  It basically looks like it fell apart.  Is this normal?  As you can see, I rubbed it with Memphis Dust I made two days ago and just folded it over and...

    Question about Smithfield Boston Butt Pork Roast's "self basting" brine...

    This is my first time smoking either of them, so you are probably right :-)  I had some pulled pork for the first time in my life from a local joint yesterday and said I've gotta make some myself.  I have always just had ribs lol.

    Question about Smithfield Boston Butt Pork Roast's "self basting" brine...

    I just bought a Smithfield Boston Butt Pork Roast from Walmart a few minutes ago.  It is cryovac'ed in a 8% solution (see pics).  I just got finished reading online to stay away from these types of "enhanced," pre-brined butts (no pun intended lol).  My question is, should I take it back to the...

    Pork Picnic-skin on or off?

    There is a video on YouTube of a fellow smoking a picnic with the skin on. He basically took some spray oil (Pam I suppose?) and sprayed it all over the skin. He then took a cotton cloth which he presoaked with veggie oil and wrapped the skin with it and put it in the smoker. I admit, my...

    Char-griller Duo with SFB

    For the rust, try a drill with a wire brush and some 120 grit sandpaper.  I bought three of these grills from Lowes for $125 total.  I got them at that price because they were really rusty; also, one was assembled and left outside in the elements and two were still in the box and left outside...

    Need tips on removing rust from Char Grill Duo Gas/Charcoal grills (3 of them)

    I just purchased 3 Char Grill Duo 5050 grills from Lowes for a total of $125.  I got them so cheap because one was assembled but left outside and has lots of what looks to be like surface rust.  The other two are still in the box unassembled but were also left outside in the elements...
