Brief Hiatus

[mcokevin]

Haven't been on SMF for a few months - didn't have a working smoker, holidays, and time flies! Got the smoker repaired today, and going to do wings tomorrow. Thankfully I had some PP in the freezer to hold me over and entertain my brother and his wife when they were in town last month.

Glad to be back with you all.

Have no fear, there has been plenty of beef. If I ever take a beef hiatus you’ll know all hope for me is lost.

Thanks! They turned out pretty good, sauce was "just ok" this time, but I also think I am my own worst critic. Thinking I am going to need to upgrade from the lazy store bought stuff.

Thank you!

Welcome back to rolling that smoke.

Thanks - I saw some of your other posts when I was catching up. I lived in Miami for 10 years and still have family down there. I miss noche buena a lot. How did the 1050 do cooking the pork? I wonder if you could fit a small quartered pig in there in some configuration. I've seen them done in regular ovens before, so I bet you could.

The Pernil came out grate. I did two 25lb legs and only used one for dinner. So I had tons of left overs to share with my neighbor and friends. I followed the Ingrid Hoffmann recepie. Very traditional Cuban flavor.

I think you can definitely fit a quartered pig between the three racks and especially if you get extended top and middle racks. The 1050 has the room. I fit the two legs on the middle shelf with ease. Everything shrinks while smoking, so you gain space as time goes on.
