So I changed a few things, normally I run my Brisket up to 200 degrees.  This one I held at 185, but I smoked it for 8 hours in my MES, keep it in there for another 8 hours, and then pulled it from the MES.  I transferred it to a foil pan, and place foil over the top.  I placed it in my oven and...

So I had the best pulled pork I have made yet.  and wanted to document what I did to get it there. Friday, I brined it. Playmate cooler, water, 4 oz. of molasses, and 4 oz. of sea salt.  I then shoved it into the cooler and let it sit for 24hrs, with ice on top in a zip lock baggie.  Changed...

What about smoking flour for a Roux?  Most of the good gumbos have a great smoky flavor.  So I am thinking of smoking everything then combining it in a traditional manner.  So I would smoke my chicken, my shrimp, my sausage and flour.  And then add it all back in once I have it all prepped.

Stopped by Walmart (North side of Lebanon, Ohio) last night on my way home, I am not normally this far south.  I had a gut feeling something special was in store. I now have 6 briskets in the freezer.  Manager special, 1.38 per pound, I left 4 in the case.  I also picked up a few (4) slabs, of...

Okay, I've probally made a few mistakes with this one all ready. Did not Brine, covered it in Olive Oil, and a rub.  Injected it with a whiskey - apple juice blend, with the rub mixed in for flavor.  I will let it smoke until it gets to 140 degrees.  Re-inject and double foil wrap it, ann add a...
