    Boston Butt Pulled Pork (Step by Step)

    Just completed my first pork butt using Bear’s step by step, it turned out awesome. Thank you for taking the time to educate those of us new to this way of cooking. Special thanks to chef jimmyj for that finishing sauce, really put it over the top. Can’t wait for round two of me versus ribs...

    Fail with asparagus

    Very strong balsamic vinegar taste and woody, not necessarily hard just not completely done. Tough but chewable (not ideal) is an apt description, not pleasant to eat and sadly we didn’t,

    Fail with asparagus

    Yes cut off the ends, they were “woody” the entire length after cooking.

    Fail with asparagus

    Tried Jeff’s smoked balsamic asparagus and what ever happened was not pleasant. Maybe to much balsamic? After an hour smoke at 230, they were still to firm, another 15 minutes didn’t help. Tried to grill them to save some but just didn’t work. Any advice would be appreciated.

    1st try at ABTs

    1st time trying ABTs on MES 30, used cream cheese, sharp cheddar, scallions and sun dried tomatoes...turned out really good.

    1st attempt ever - ribs

    Thanks for the kind words, I'm re-reading Al's step by step using internal temp and hoping try #2 turns out better. Like the 3-2-1 method but don't have the experience to tell when each rack needs more or less time in any stage. Think temp may be the way to go for consistency with no smoking...

    Spare Ribs And Enjoying The Flavors!

    Awesome looking ribs, definitely what I’m aspiring to, though I do have the PBR part down pat.

    1st attempt ever - ribs

    Got an MES 30 for my birthday, watch videos and tried the 3-2-1 for spare ribs. Not an epic fail, they were edible but definitely could have been much better. Started with Sam’s Club spare ribs, the trimming part started the downhill slide and still not sure how they looked nothing like the pics...
