here we go with a BBB i am cold smoking it on a Weber 22.5 kettle using a AMPS (i love the AMPS) using pit master pellets. it is a 6# butt. that has been boned and split. it was cured in TC and my secret tub. for 10 days. i put it in the smoke last night with the AMPS full. lite on one end. at 7 this morning. the AMPS had burned out. i reloaded it with half a load of pellets and re fired it. it is going to get to warm here in Arkansas today to run another full AMPS. so i will decide after it burns out if i will add more smoke tonight. i probably will.

so here are some pics.

sliced off a piece to do a fry test.


in the skillet.


turned over. after the fry test it was soaked in water for 45 min to remove a little salt.

i liked the flavor but i like salt. maybe that's why i have high blood pressure.


TBS like a NINJA. i keep going back to the kettle for small smokes with the AMPS

it is just the right size for a small smoke. i think it gets more of the smoke. and

the AMPS doesn't put out enough heat to get in the danger zone.


here it is smoking this morning. taking on good color.


the AMPS smoking away. if you don't have an AMPS you need one. trust me.


OK that's where we are now. i will decide. if it gets more smoke or if it gets to just rest in the fridge. till it gets sliced.

more to come.

thanks for fallowing this.

happy smoken

if your not smoken something. you should be.
 
here it is out of the smoker. i got 5.5 hours out of the AMPS with a little over 1 row filled. glad i didn't fill it up. it warmed up here. i had about 30min in the danger zone. it's back in the fridge now. i will give it more smoke tonight.

here are the pics right before it went back in the fridge.

i think it has nice color. smells great.



more to come later.

happy smoken.

David
