Brining or Dry Rub
Apologies..."BGE" equals Big Green Egg...just a different type of smoker. Here is a link to Elizabeth's Lexington sauce: http://www.elizabethkarmel.com/recipes/north-carolina-style-pulled-pork.html -
Brining or Dry Rub
I brine pretty much all poultry and pork. However, when it comes to smoking a pork butt, I don't. I have tried plain dry rubs, mustard slathered all over with a dry rub, and just pepper/salt. They are all pretty good, but I (for ease) usually just go with a dry rub (I prefer heavy on the heat... -
New method (to me) for Pulled Pork - Advice Welcome!!!
hmmm...I like that. It's what I do with the brisket (mixed with a bit of ketchup). I usually commit the travesty of putting an aluminum pan under the pork (under the grate; the pork does not sit in the pan), and fill it with water or, in this case, apple juice...may go a little light on that and...- skinnyb37

New method (to me) for Pulled Pork - Advice Welcome!!!
Thanks Kat! Yeah...a little conflicted if I want to try it with my buddy coming in. May wait till I can experiment on folks that eat it often and can give feedback...with the BGE, moisture is not a problem anyway...just seeing all these so-called "experts" on TV that inject. As far as the...- skinnyb37

New method (to me) for Pulled Pork - Advice Welcome!!!
Thanks Brad...do you go lighter on the salt on the outside rub to take into account the amount added in the injection? I like your idea of replacing the sugar/salt with the rub...my rub has plenty of both in it :)- skinnyb37

New method (to me) for Pulled Pork - Advice Welcome!!!
Hello, all, I would love to get some advice from my more experienced smoke-mates here. My best friend from my Navy days is coming to visit this weekend and has requested pulled pork. I have done several pork butts on my BGE in the past. I was fortunate enough to take a course with Elizabeth...- skinnyb37

Dutch's "Wicked Baked Beans"
Man these are good. I rendered a lot of bacon (about 10 slices), sauteed an onion, a jalapeno, a serrano, and a bell pepper in the fat. Then i added 3 cans (the smaller ones) of Bush beans, brown sugar, honey, ketchup, the dry mustard, maple syrup (hey, when in Rome...), and a can of crushed...- skinnyb37

Grade my brisket cook
Oops...sorry I didn't get right back to you. Gotbags answered though...that's what I do. mmmmmm...brisket. I made the mistake of just picking mine up yesterday so it won't get the rub for a long time but one day will be good enough. I didn't inject but am really looking forward to your comments... -
Grade my brisket cook
Looks good! As far as the Gin...whatever you like is what I suggest. But to bgosnell151, I like mine with a touch of vermouth and 2 olives (or onions) as well...if by "touch of vermouth" you mean being in the same room and glancing in the general direction of the bottle of vermouth. Looking... -
Dutch's "Wicked Baked Beans"
Wow! These look great! Thanks for sharing. About 3 years ago, I made up my own recipe to "customize" Bush's beans. Very similar to yours...I saute onion and jalapeno in bacon drippings (I use an entire pack of bacon), add the beans, some ketchup, molasses, mustard (wet), a bit of honey, and...- skinnyb37

PORK BUTT COMPARISON TEST
hmmm...I don't brine either, but maybe I'll try it one day. My wife gets frustrated that I change it every time (have injected once, slathered in mustard a few times, different woods, etc), but I'm trying to find the "magical" one, lol. I do like the natural flavor but may try out a brine next... -

First pork butt!!!
Great minds must think alike...I have one going now Nothing like building a snowman in flurries while smelling hickory and apple wood smoke... -
Smoking on gas grill?
Chad, before I got my BGE, I used my old gas grill (3 burner) for smoking all the time. I will admit it's easier to control the temp on the BGE, but I recently moved to VT and haven't yet set up the BGE, so I use my newer 5 burner gas grill to smoke butts and brisket. Follow Dutch's...- skinnyb37

Brisket - where did I go wrong?
I'd say you did great for a first attempt! Agree with a couple other posters, though...I bring mine up to 205F and it slices nice...I also maintain smoker at no more than 225F (usually 210F). Trimming is also a personal taste thing...I usually don't, but certainly if the fat is too think (an... -
Mad Hunky Hot Whang Wings
Good question, and I'd like to know as well. I did some for SB, but smoked at 200 or so for 45 minutes or thereabouts, removed (cause I needed to grill up some flatbreads...pregnant woman at the party and she needed to eat right now!), then put them over the hot grill to crisp them up...didn't... -
Had to make some sausage - Kabanosy, Spicy Sticks, Varmlandskorv, Slim Jimish Sticks & Sun Dried Tom
Oh, man! That looks like it's gonna be awesome! I tried my 2nd batch about a month ago, but it turned out too dry (used Costco pork butts and a little bit of fat back)...was frustrating, so I wasn't sure when I'd try again, but those pics are starting to get me excited to try again...just... -
Tonight's Smoke
OK, thanks guys for letting me know (should've guessed!)...I will definitely check out the book, but I am too stubborn (some say arrogant) to buy pre-mixed rubs... -
Tonight's Smoke
dang! 8 butts?!?! Hope you have a lot of friends/family coming over (or a lot of Lipitor!). Curious (since I'm so new to this site), what is "Jeff's Rub and Sauce" and his book? -
Last Weekend BBQ! Baby Backs and Butts
nice looking Q! I plan on doing wings, candied bacon, and ribs for SB, and some grilled pineapple cause my wife seems to think veggies/fruits are necessary :) The pepper sauce is a great idea! I had never even thought of doing something like that. Was it well received? Looks good!
