    Pork Butt -For Pops6927

    Pops, in an earlier post about Easter Pork Butt ham, you mentioned that you "boned and rolled" the butt. Food Lion has butts at 0.99 per pound so I am going to cure and smoke one in an effort to come up with what we used to call pickled pork when I was growing up in Australia. When I take the...

    Pickled Pork

    Growing up in Australia we always had pickled pork at Christmas. The cut (probably a butt) was brined by the butcher and was cooked by boiling at a low temp. My wife and I both remember it had a texture like corned beef but had a "hammy" taste. My sister, who lives in Australia, tells me that it...

    I recently sought info on sources in Houston for smoking accessories (without any luck). Found a place - Allied Kenco - and thought I'd died and gone to heaven. You Houston guys have it made.

I rather enjoyed biltong with an ice-cold adult beverage, so I decided to make some. I found some scraps of half-inch ply I had laying...

    Modified ECB - Temp problems

    I have modified an ECB Gourmet - 2 dampers/one vent/raised grate/sealed lid with BGE felt/new thermometer. I add boiling water to pan/light 16 briquettes and add one layer of briquettes to grate and pour lighted briquettes onto that layer. When temp gets to 200 I close both bottom dampers and...

    Hi. My name is Peter and I'm from South Carolina. Actually, I'm from Sydney, Australia via London, CT, NY and NJ. I have been grilling for (too) many years but have only been smoking for a short time. I grill on a Weber Genesis Gold (gas) and smoke on an ecb which is continually being modified...
