    Pork loin today

    It's been a long no smoking winter here in Iowa, but today the outside temperature is high enough for me to fire up the WSM. I started with around a 9.5 lb pork loin that I picked up from Sam's Club. I cut it and half and put it in a brine overnight. Brine consisted of: pickling salt maple...

    After reading about this for several months, I decided to give it a try. I started out with a twin pack of bone-in pork shoulder weighing around 10 pounds each from Sam's Club. I deboned and cut each one in half leaving four similar sized pieces of meat that was netted to keep shape. Pop's...

    Pulled Pork on WSM - Q View

    This is my second smoke on this smoker. The first being some chicken thighs that turned out pretty good (I prefer pork or beef). I'm 4.5 hours in and at 170 internal temp with the smoker keeping fairly steady at 245. I would usually foil at this time, but think I'll ride this one out without...

    First Chuckies - freezer clean out

    New to smoking from Ames, IA

    After talking about doing it for a couple of years, my wife bought me a smoker for our anniversary gift. It's a Camp Chef Smoke Vault. I'm planning on trying to smoke a pork shoulder for pulled pork in the next couple of days. After reading this forum, I think I have a gameplan. Wish me luck.
