Good morning everyone! I stopped by the local grocery store the other day to grab a couple things and they had a real nice fresh cut pork butt. His prices are typically through the roof. To my surprise he had the butt for $1.20 per pound for a 7 pounder. Decided to give it a try at that price...
Well....I think I screwed up. I put the chuckles on and tried the hot and fast method at 275. I put them on at 2:55 and and at 6:40 they are at 203 and 210. I wrapped at 190 just to loosen them up a bit. Part of each roast is toothpick tender and other parts are still a bit tough. I think...
So I bought 2 chuck roasts last Friday night with the intention of smoking them Saturday morning. Well that didn't happen and they have been in the fridge ever since and I forgot about them. They are still in the wrap from SAMS and the sell by date was the 22nd on the label. My...
So this Saturday my buddy did a pork butt while we shot bow (didn't get to do my chuckie a due to space so maybe next weekend). There was a little room in the small barrel so I grabbed a flat iron steak on the way out. I rubbed in olive oil and put SPOG on it. We smoked it til it hit about 130...
We are shooting bows out at my buddy's house all day and he was talking about doing some butts on his Pitt Barrel Cooker while we are shooting. I thought about instead of butts, maybe doings some chuckies for pulling instead just to give them a try. I was just curious how chuckies do at higher...
I want to try a pizza on my UDS just to see how it turns out. My question is, should I throw it on the rack or keep it on a pizza pan? I figured I would try to smoke it at 350 but just wondering if it will burn the crust before the rest is done. I thought about trying a papa murphys take and...
A little while back me and a buddy smoked up a 9 lb meatloaf which was huge. Well, yesterday we decided to top that...by 11 lbs. my buddy whipped up a 20 lb loaf and I fired up the barrel. Didn't really get too many pictures but just wanted to show off this monster.
Pre-smoke. And yes there...
Hello Folks,
Last night I made what I would say is probably my favorite thing to grill. I call them my redneck fajitas and they are fairly simple and straight forward. I will apologize ahead of time because I did not get pictures of the preparation or grilling the actual chicken but I'm sure...
On Saturday me and one of my buddies decided to smoke up some food and drink some beer. He wanted to do three racks of ribs with different seasonings on his barrel and I wanted to give jeffs wings a try on my barrel. I followed his recipe to the T up until the broiler portion.
The wings out of...
Supposed to smoke some ribs tomorrow and through about trying the hot and fast method to see what it's all about. I did the hot and fast on some butts at about 275 and at times a touch higher and worked great. My question is, since jeffs rub is high in sugar, how hot is too hot? I'd rather not...
I felt like doing some kind of meat on a stick on the gasser. Stopped at the store and grabbed some chicken breast and veggies. For the veg I did my normal marinade of olive oil, pepper, garlic powder, salt and onion powder. For the chicken I just used some Avery's marinade for 45 min.
The...
The town had it's annual carnival this weekend so we decided to have a party and drink all day. Made up a double batch of jeffs rub for the butts. I did two 7 pounders and an 8 pounder. I also did 24 ABTs filled with cream cheese, sausage, cheddar and jeffs rub. Cooked the butts at 275 and they...
I got tired of reading recipes and posts where it says "apply Jeff's rub..." so I broke down and bought it to see what all the hype is about plus I really want to try his honey BBQ wings where you soak them in buttermilk . My question for now is does this rub go good with pork butt or will it...
I think this is the right place to post this so here goes. I typically read a lot of success stories and I am in no way trying to brag but I have had quite a few myself and can say a lot of them came from advice here. I thought it might be fun to hear about your biggest epic failure. Ones...
So we got into the beers pretty heavy on Friday night and decided to do a meatloaf on Saturday so I thawed out 9 lb of ground beef and away we went. I'm not real sure what the recipe was because my neighbor just started throwing stuff in the bowl.
Here is the 9 lb beast goin in the smoker...
Went to hyvee to get groceries plus they had pork butt on sale for 88 cents per lb. The guy at the counter said they sold out in about 3 minutes but I quit listening to him when I spotted the tri tip. It was $5.99/lb but I didn't care. I bought 2 of them to give a try this weekend....got home...
It just dawned on me last night that looking through the UDS section that there are typically quite a few questions about fire boxes and I had not posted my cheap solution to it. I searched all over for good expanded metal but everyone wanted an arm and a leg for it. So I decided to experiment...
I was going through the pics on my phone and realized I never posted pics of our deer sausage adventure. We have been doing our own sausage for about 6 years now. We have always smoked it in an old fridge smoker at my dads buddy's shop but decided to break away from them and do it at my brothers...
Hello everyone,
I was gonna try to do the meatloaf I have been asking about but stumbled across a "London broil" at walmart. So I picked it up as well as some chicken legs and pork t-loin.
Here it is pre rub.
Rubbed it down with Worcestershire sauce then some BPS double steak rub then...
Hello Folks,
Last weekend we smoked 6 pork T-Loin and 60 ABTs on my barrel smoker and did 2 big chickens on my brothers barrel. I committed the greatest sin of not taking any pictures...I know I know. This sunday I was hoping to make a smoked meatloaf and was wondering what the best process...
