Looks great Steve! What cut of meat did you start with? 200 deg for 4 hours to what internal temp?
Thx Cliff

Thanks! I use the excuse that it's too hard to slice at that point. I don't think the wife believes that completely!
Looks real good. the colour is perfect!
Very lean.
I'll bet it makes awesome sammiches!
my last batch I left on a fair bit of back fat, as I like mine a bit fatty.
I have been buying commercial trimmed loins, and using tails for pseudo side bacon, and the loin eye for back bacon.
my side bacon is cut very thick for fried "bites" and the back bacon is sliced thin for sammies and such!
Damn...I mean just DAMN!! I've made a ton or two of CB but yours is about the best looking I've ever seen. Seriously, that is absolutely gorgeous Steve. Perfect job!! You just gotta make sure to slice when the wife isn't around, then you don't have to make up excuses for "taste testing" it. I just tell Tracy I do it for her, to make sure I'm giving her the best I can
Hey, it works for me,

Winter is losing the grip so time to find something to smoke.
CB sounds. I don't smoke more than a few hours, but take IT up to 160°
What's your final IT?
Thanks! The waiting is the hardest part!Looks delicious. I've got a loin soaking now but its got a long ways to go.
Fantastic color, nice job Steve. What internal temp do you aim for?
I reckon you should buy yourself a T-shirt like I got the son-in-law for Christmas, you deserve it.
