    Internal temp of meat safe??

    Yea I would much rather just take the loss of paying for the brisket rather than someone getting sick off my food. Definitely a new lesson learned.

    Internal temp of meat safe??

    Thank y’all for the help/advice yesterday! The first brisket was demolished before I got a pic and I just got a quick pic of a few pieces from the second one!

    Internal temp of meat safe??

    Yea I pulled them out to wrap. I usually do around the stall. I didn’t think I had any issue until i had it wrapped, back on, and went to stick the probe in and couldn’t find anything near that 175 again.

    Internal temp of meat safe??

    I highly doubt it. I usually just ballpark close to where I think it was. I’ve done it a ton and I usually have some change in temp but it just seemed strange to me this was like 30°.

    Internal temp of meat safe??

    I already have them wrapped in paper and back on.

    Internal temp of meat safe??

    No I usually carry mine to around 205-208 but when I noticed that big drop it raised some red flags because I knew I pierced the meat with my injector. I just let it go anyways and wanted to see what the fine folks here had to say about it.

    Internal temp of meat safe??

    So I was recruited by the youth pastor at my church to smoke a couple briskets for a Super Bowl party today. Told him no problem I’ve done a ton of briskets before and people generally like them. However I think I have a problem. I put the briskets on my smoker at 1am central. I let them ride...

    Smoker cleaning/care

    10-4. That’s what I was thinking but wasn’t sure. So what do they use at the factory when they are making these things? It obviously has some kind of coating on it? Just wondering.

    Smoker cleaning/care

    So I’ve been trying to clean the interior of my smoker a bit this evening. I bought some Krylon high heat spray paint that I used on the exterior to clean up a few rust spots. Would it be ok to scrape down the actual grates and use the same spray on them for some of the rust spots? I mean it...

    Classic New Orleans style po-boys

    I like Italian sausage but hard to beat a good fried shrimp po boy in my opinion. Looks great!

    Glaze for ham

    I am smoking two spiral cut hams for Christmas this year for the family. I was trying to decide on what to use as a glaze. I have read about several glazes using apple jelly as a base. I have a bottle of Captain Rodneys I was thinking about using as a base but I was wondering what flavors to...

    Brining a frozen 8% solution turkey?

    The turkey I smoked this past weekend was just a generic Kroger brand turkey with same 8% and I did a brine with 1 cup of salt and it turned out great.

    Spatcocked turkey time

    I came across your Cajun Apple butter injection for turkey on this site and I used it this past weekend. It was awesome. Had to change up some of the ingredients due to a Cajun turkey being cooked besides mine. So the injection wasn’t really Cajun but it tasted awesome nonetheless.

    Spatcocked turkey time

    I smoked a stuffed turkey that weighed 21 lbs at about 325 and it took about 5.5 hours

    Brine and Injection

    How long will that stock keep? Do you freeze what you don’t use? I have made stock with chicken bones before but not turkey although I’m assuming they are exactly the same.

    Brine and Injection

    Yes T is tablespoon and t is teaspoon. I didn’t notice a distinct sweet taste that was just what the recipe called for. I will say that due to time I didn’t let the injection sit in it long at all before I put it on the smoker. So maybe it might get more pronounced if it has time to sit. I...

    Brine and Injection

    Thanks for the tip! It wasn’t chewy and was very tender I thought. I actually didn’t carve it, when I sat it on the counter my father in law was already slicing a turkey that was fried and he asked if I wanted to cut mine or just let him do I said keep rolling haha. I didn’t think about that...

    Brine and Injection

    It was because I was told if I cooked around 300 it would take about 20 minutes a pound which was closer to 7 hours. So I bumped it up to 325. I’m no pro lol I just know I cooked till I saw a good pull temp lol.

    Brine and Injection

    Thanks. It was about 20 pounds. It cooked really fast. When I first got it on I let it get a little hotter than I wanted and it got up to 350. As soon as I got it back down the rest of the cook was between 315-335.
