thanks. it was a bunch of work, but it was worth it. next time it will be easier. i should have my other electric smoker built and i should be able to do it all in one shot.
i got the call earlier this year. a good friend of ours was getting married and would i please make some meat for the reception. how could i refuse a bride on her wedding day? i started first with 35 pounds of chicken wings.
followed by 25 pounds of featherbones
and 20 pounds of pork...
that insulation will work just fine. my 1958 GE fridge has cardboard insulation. the fiberglass you ahve is even better than that.
looks like you are off to a great start. i cannot tell how big your smoker will be, but 1500 watts is a good start. i have a converted fridge and i started off...
when the butts are that big, i have the store i bought them at cut them in half. it cuts hours off of the cooking time and you get more of the exterior bark and therefore more flavor in the finished product.
wonderful!
i hate giving more than a few bites to the kids. it goes to waste and makes me cranky. i usually take st louis cut ribs in and have them cut lengthwise to make them smaller for the kids to eat. then we make them make multiple trips to the food table.
so, is this the end of the rack of ribs that they trim off to get "kansas city cut" rib racks? (the small end of the rack)?

i agree with ShaneHolz, once the meat starts to expirate fluids at about 140 degrees, nothing else gets into the meat. all you get is a thicker "bark" on the outside. no more smoke ring formation occurs.
i have been misting my wings/ribs/chicken with a mixture of lime juice and jalapenos/chipotle 5 minutes before i pull them from my smoker. my kids love it and it gives a limey-spicy snap like they get when they go to the "buffalo wild wings" at the mall but without the $60 bill that comes with...
Fareway in Omaha has 10lb bags of frozen leg quarters for $.39 a pound. this is a once a year deal. get them while you can. i am cleaning out all the frozen peas and other crap in the freezer. i am making a donation to the food bank. we both make out on this deal.
vegetables begone! make way...
