I like the idea of hanging it!

Too bad you didn't have a sockinette!

Pulled it at 148* IT anyone say let it rest a day or 2

Or slice tomorrow?

Richie

 

[crankybuzzard]

I'd slice tomorrow after resting in the frig. Cold meat slices better.

 

[gary s]

I let mine rest for 2 days Just because I was following what Bear did. Don't know if it makes a difference or not ?

What works best for me is wait 36 to 48 hours. (If I smoke it Friday, I slice it Sunday)

Then freeze for 3 hours before slicing.

Done it longer--No difference. IMHO

I let mine rest in the fridge for 5-7 days.  

It works, trust me.
