beef shoulder roast today, along with a butt, beans, and potatoes

[chris_harper]

here is a pic of the shoulder roast i smoked today. i forgot to get one before i sliced it. i also did a boneless boston butt roast (pulled it), wicked baked beans, and potatoes. sure was a good supper. both roasts were juicy and tender. i injected both with some of my mop before i stuck them in the smoker. i used apple juice, worcestershire sauce, and EVOO for my mop on these.

Looks good and I am sure it tastes the same way.

this was the first time i had injected anything, as i had just bought an injector. i think i will inject any roast from now on. my mop varies depending what i have on hand. usually apple juice mixed with something else. bourbon, worcestershire sauce, vegetable oil, EVOO. i have mixed 2 or 3 of them lots of times. i mop after 2 or 3 hours, then every 45 minutes to an hour. i let the rub set first before my first mop. i haven't done a bottom round roast, yet. that will be in the near future though.

Chris really looks great and hope the family enjoyed all they could handle. Don't know if it was just for the 3 of you or not but if it was i am sure there gotta be some great leftover recipies. When you have a few seconds pass some along. Maybe will come across something i have not thought of yet.

Thanks
Bill

i usually make chili with leftover smoked meat; when there is some.

As my friends say in Kentucky.....dammitboy! That looks fine.

Looking dang good there chris,as always. Hey theres a comp cook in waco on the 30 & 31 this month at the american legion riders at 200 tennessee west of down town. I thought about going but have another comp in Irving that same weekend at the knights of columbus hall. Thought I would pass that along in case you might want to go check it out.

 

[chris_harper]

i might have to check that out, marvin. thanks for the tip.

Wow, when you cook you go all out. Looks fantastic. From what I've seen, it looks like you, tonto & bud win "the busiest smokers" award. Lotta work, good job.

Wish you guys all lived closer to me, but then I'd be a "DangBigAL".

Whats on the menu next weekend?

 

[deejaydebi]

Dang I was gonna save some meat for chilli the last time you mentioned it and forgot!

Chris,
What do you use to pull your smoked meat with?

I purchased a set of Bear Paw Meat Handlers http://cgi.ebay.com/Bear-Paw-Meat-Ha...QQcmdZViewItem, but have not used them yet. I have done pork shoulder roasts and used forks to pull them, but it takes forever!

 

[chris_harper]

i just wear a pair of nitrile gloves, and use my hands.

 

[nauidvr1]

Ah! you do it the old fashioned way!
