First smoke ever.
thanks, and yes, I am one of those "detail" guys. It drives me nuts half the time. I can't go to certain hotel suites because the artwork on the wall is not level. Also, yes, I was going to be using SoFlaQuer's finishing sauce. In addition to that, I'm going to do another smoke with Dutch's... -
First smoke ever.
Thanks. Unfortunately, I had to do the final finishing in the oven. It was getting really dark, and I was getting really tired and just wanted to go watch some TV. Anyways, they're not QUITE as pristine as they appear in the pics . I think for a first attempt, it's better than any BBQ or... -
First smoke ever.
Thanks! I got the last one off somewhere around midnight last night. I realized that my grill was pretty uneven. As soon as I can FIND some thermometers, I'll put some more of those in... I'm also gonna buy some of those taylor thermometers from amazon. Right now, they're buy 3 get 1 free... -
First smoke ever.
dang near twisted the bone out of two of them when my pyrex started beeping. Swapped it to the next smallest one, and while I was wrapping it up, started beeping again. The other two have a little ways to go temp wise, but I'm just gonna trust my pyrex from here on out. That said, q-view: -
First smoke ever.
I'm gonna have to get me one of those! I've used the pyrex one in boiling water, so I'm pretty confident with it. Gonna check the bone, and come back with q-view. Back in a few -
First smoke ever.
well, looks like I was a little closer than I thought. I'm using two different thermometers, and one was a little off... I think. My pyrex reads at 154, which is good, considering that it's in the big one. The new one, which I got at a restaurant supply store is reading at 164. I was... -
First smoke ever.
Well, 13 hrs in, and still at the plateau at 153ish. It's been there for the last 4 hours. Is this normal? Also, just about out of hickory. I've got three sticks left. Switching to Oak. -
First smoke ever.
me too. Unfortunately, my temps are dropping. I've got too much ash and not getting enough airflow. GRRRR..... -
First smoke ever.
That sounds amazing. I would have done that, BUT, I kinda ran out of room on my smoker :P I've been lurking on the forum for a little while, and every time his recipe comes up, it's nothing but rave reviews. EDIT: I hit the real plateau at 150. It's sitting pretty there. I noticed the temp... -
First smoke ever.
Funny pinkmeat, My wife suggested the same thing. Unfortunately, I don't know any of the kids in the neighborhood. Oh well. Here are the butts about 6-7 hours into it. I'm spritzing them down with apple juice and brandy. -
First smoke ever.
Thanks a bunch! I really enjoy that I get to play with those sorts of toys when I work :) Update on the Q. My smallest butt is plateauing (I think) at 140. At least, It's been holding steady there for quite a while. My largest is still down around 115. I only had two probe thermometers so... -
First smoke ever.
I mainly use my camera to do business photos. I'm a guitar maker and violin maker by trade, so when I need to document something (a repair, restoration, or a new instrument) I take photos. As for lenses, for recreation, I use the stock 18-55 and 55-200 ones as well as a Tamron Macro lense... -
First smoke ever.
Thanks! The photos are from a Nikon D50 with the stock 18-55 glass shot at 800 ISO. And yes, my neighbors are drooling. There have been a few near accidents already (I should have a video camera instead of a still one :P) and I have had a few people just stop to talk to me while I'm sitting... -
First smoke ever.
qview up! What I started with: My setup, and general placement: And finally..... What we've all been waiting for: I'll be doing the dryer vent mod as soon as I'm done with this smoke. I already sealed it with foil (until I can get some gasket) and turned over the charcoal tray as a... -
First smoke ever.
Thanks for the support. As soon as I figure out why the autofocus on my camera is going screwy, I'll have some pics up. The 25 lbs is between 4 butts, and I plan to eat on wednesday. I'm going to leave them whole, wrap them in foil, and reheat them to 165* before the party. We've got about... -
First smoke ever.
Yep. First smoke. Bought about 25 lbs of pork butt from sams last night, and got a layer of Jeff's rub on it, let it sit overnight, then did another layer with a little mustard. Got it going somewhere around 730 MST. As things progress, I will be in with q-view. I'm smoking on a Char... -
Hello from Salt Lake and Chicago!
Thanks! Believe it or not, you're the reason that I signed up for the forum. I was looking at different mods, and liked yours the best. I was actually getting over there to comment about it :P -
Hello from Salt Lake and Chicago!
Hello all! Just got myself a new grill/smoker, and have been wanting to get into this for quite some time. I just bought a Chargriller Duo with a FSB, and hopefully (if weather holds out) season it this weekend :) I am beyond a novice at this, but grilled all through college. I can't wait to...
