    Chicken thighs- does time between brine and smoker/grill matter?

    Everything came out great- thanks again!  I think I over-seasoned with the rub juuuust a bit, but mostly everything came out great.  I know it didn't happen without a Q view so:

    Chicken thighs- does time between brine and smoker/grill matter?

    Thanks I decided to try it your way.  Brine took forever to cool though, had to float some bags with ice in there and still was up half the night!  Chicken is on the smoker now though :)

    Chicken thighs- does time between brine and smoker/grill matter?

    I'm smoking some chicken thighs for my son's birthday tomorrow, and usually when I do thighs I brine on the day I'm cooking, and put the rub on either just before the smoker or up to a few hours before.  I've seen some people say with chicken it's good to get the rub sit on there overnight- for...

    Maverick ET-733 thread

    Sorry if I missed this somewhere in the thread, but there were 2 things I was wondering about 1) Is setup as bad as the amazon reviews sound?  Seems like a lot of people have issues with configuring it and find it confusing.  2) Is it not possible to set your own fully custom temps for...

    holding pork butt in oven vs cooler

    It was cold water, but I was able to get the temp back up and stabilized fairly quickly so I don't think that was it.  I was more worreid about there being some reason that might take moisture out of the meat, but coudln't think of any reason why it would (if anything I would expect the...

    holding pork butt in oven vs cooler

    Yeah, maybe I was relying on my temperature tools too much... But I actually was noting the resistance when I used the thermapen, and it wasn't sliding in totally smooth, I could feel some resistance, so that was another reason I kept going thinking I was just being impatient. These were...

    holding pork butt in oven vs cooler

    Thanks for the help everyone. Well, these weren't the best butts I've ever done, but not bad.   On top of everything, the food temp  probe of the maverick started having issues, but the thermapen was still showing high 190's when I finally pulled them off.  I tried putting them in the oven for...

    Dutch's "Wicked Baked Beans"

    Thanks Dutch.  I get the point of smoking and the temps for that, but I thought maybe the target for the food temp had something to do with safety (sort of like the 40 to 140 in 4 rule).   Was just curious though- either way this recipe is always a hit!

    holding pork butt in oven vs cooler

    Just realized one thing I did differently around the temp drop... I partially refilled the wsm pan with some water.  The grate temp has still been at a steady 220-240 though, so I'd still expect it to cook at the same rate, but I don't know if that makes a difference.

    holding pork butt in oven vs cooler

    Thanks.  It's still on the smoker right now.  It's strange, the temp was around 203 in one spot, so I checked a couple of other spots and it was still in the 190's and I let it sit and put the probe in a new spot.  The new spot was around 199, and shotly came up to 203 about an hour or so ago...
