But since the 4th falls on a Monday and me actually getting it off, and Sunday being my only real day off...

    Brisket for Labor Day

    So, my first brisket was horrible. Did no research on it, had no idea what I was doing and went by time that was listed in a recipe. So this time I've read up on what I should do. Bought a 12# packer, and separated the point and flat myself (also a first time thing). Very happy with the way it...

    Today just wasn't meant to be

    So I had planned on smoking a chicken today. Got it in a brine last night of 2 gallons water, cup kosher salt, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup dry Italian herbs, and 3 TBLS balsamic vinegar (just what I had left in a bottle, figured I'd throw it in to see what would happen). Well, today's weather...

    First boneless CSR's

    So I'm planning on smoking some boneless csr's tomorrow for Pioneer Days here in SLC. The plan is to get them started about 11:30am to eat around 6pm. The 2–2–1 method should work for these right? Gonna rub with coconut oil and my spice rub around 7am. I found a pineapple Korean bbq sauce that I...
