    Any Tips for a Mammoth Sized Pork Loin-Bone In

    Chines Off. Not too bad of a job. How much time should I allow for the cook? After checking the Web, at 250f I've seen figures varying from 3h to 9 hours :-) Will cook it medium rare, pull at 135f to 140f as previously suggested.

    Any Tips for a Mammoth Sized Pork Loin-Bone In

    Yeah, I'm just going through the vid now. Thanks for that. I also own a hammer too. Sure a hammer and a blunt chefs knife can do the job half arsed enough.

    Any Tips for a Mammoth Sized Pork Loin-Bone In

    In other news, I'm approved to go for a better quality smoker when I finally kill this $100 one :-) The smoker has been a huge hit in the last 3-4 cooks we've done.

    Any Tips for a Mammoth Sized Pork Loin-Bone In

    So, your saying i can leave this chine in? How will i separate into serving size chops afterwards? Is the chine bone not one giant horizontal bone running right though that a standard fillet knife cant not go through?

    Any Tips for a Mammoth Sized Pork Loin-Bone In

    This is a problem for me. Chine Bone's are in. I don't know what to do with this. I have the Skilsaw, and a below average 6" Fillet and a chef knife.......that's the lot. What should i do about the Chine Bone?

    Any Tips for a Mammoth Sized Pork Loin-Bone In

    Hi Guys, Thanks for all the messages and the help. You guys always add value and insight to my cooks. As some of you may know from my previous posts, i'm about 10 smokes in with some epic fails, and more recently some really exceptional BBQ. I'm still on the basics though in terms of knowledge...

    Any Tips for a Mammoth Sized Pork Loin-Bone In

    Any tips for this full Pork Loin with Bone? Planned to smoke it with some hickory until its around 150f internal temperature in the centre. It's the first time doing such a large piece, but i expect it will take around 3 hours - will try to keep the cooking temp at 250f, but it usually runs a...

    How to Crisp the Skin on the Offset Smoker (P Belly)

    Hi Guys, I done a Pork Belly 1KG last week and it was just perfect. BBQ Dry Rub, with BBQ style sauce. I did remove the skin, because I wasn't up for the challenge of trying to make it crispy. This weekend I will try it again, but I will attempt to do it with the skin on. So I have a...

    Hi Guys, I have 2 small pieces of Pork Belly to cook up tomorrow. I will do it 2 ways. The fattier piece i will use for burnt ends. Burnt ends are always suggested on the web to be cooked to 200-205c. So that what ill do. But for the sliced pork belly (I will smoke for as a 1KG slab) - i am...

    Does this Birch Wood look OK for the Smoker?

    Just popped the manufacture a message. Seems you can smoke with it and it's light and kinda comparable to maple as long as you remove the bark first because it's oily. I'll give it a shot and let you guys know how it is.

    Does this Birch Wood look OK for the Smoker?

    Thanks for the link buddy. Seems its mixed. Could certainly give it a shot though. Maybe just throw 1 piece in after the Hickory to bring down the total cost of the cook. (Hickory is so expensive here)

    Does this Birch Wood look OK for the Smoker?

    This Birch Wood doesn't actually say anything relating to Smoker BBQ. Its substantially cheaper than the Hickory wood. Usually I buy the Oaklahoma Joe's stuff which is 5x more expensive. What do you think? Is it OK for the offset? Thanks

    My First Picanha

    That Picanha looks fantastic. I actually ordered a 1KG piece last week, but am yet to receive it due to stocking issues. Can't wait to try it.

    My 1st Attempt at Beef Short Ribs

    At these temps, my neighbour fried an egg on a plate outside. I'm yet to try it, but I suppose it would work. Maybe I can just throw a Brisket in there for 2 days with no coals or sticks?? 115f for 48hours :-)
