As I posted last night, todays smoke is a celebration of sorts, 500 posts and a new smoker, and what else, oh yeah, daylight savings time!
Anywho, got 10 lbs of leg quarters at the store for 5.49, 20 quarters in a bag. Marinated them overnight in Italian dressing. Fired up the Lang, and dusted the marinated chicken with McCormicks Grill Mates, 10 pieces with Roasted garlic and Herb, and the other 10 with Montreal chicken spice. Here is the smoker, getting warmed up, ready to be fed!
Rolled up 2 double sized fatties, 2 lbs each. I w/ mozz cheese, the other with pepperjack, both outta Bob Evans regular, rubbed with my usual butt rub. Tossed em in the Lang, chicken on the hot side, fatties to the left!
Mixed up a single batch of Dutch's wicked baked beans, and put them in the warmer. Cooked them at 225-250 in the warmer.
This is after 2 hrs of cook time, first spritz with apple juice and Olive oil.
Last pic is the finished fatty s, man these where big, but very good. A wider smoke ring than the silver, but not as deep of red color.
Lotsa fun today, no wind, still pretty cold out, lotsa playing with adjustments. Chicken turned out good, not great , but good, it was done at about 300 degrees, while the fatties were rollin about 240-250. The beans were excellent, as well as the fatties. All in all a good first run.
Next smoke, 31 lbs of chuck roll, probably next sunday!
