Yeah but how are you not putting a 1k egg in a table or the cart or securing it so it doesn't fall over

It's not a pan you pull out from the cabinet.

Or I can save a few hundred, get a Keg and a ton of beef and pork with the money saved? Honestly cannot think of a single thing that I am lacking with the BKK compared to an egg. If a gust of wind closes my Keg's lid, I am not risking a limb or impalement via ceramic shrapnel.

So I am feeding ~30 people pulled pork on Saturday at 3pm. My super limited grocery store only had 2 port shoulders at about 8.5lbs each.

I plan in putting them Friday at like 7pm @ 225. I assume this will give me enough time to pull/wrap/rest, then shred and bring to party. Probably going to do a memphis dust rub.

Any other suggestions?

Edit: going to trim/rub them tonight, and leave them in the fridge overnight. Any point in doing a yellow mustard rub before the Memphis Dust?

From amazingribs.com:

quote:

My experience that slathers make little or no difference in the final outcome. Mustard is water, vinegar, and maybe white wine (all mostly water) with mustard powder mixed in. The amount of mustard powder is so small that by the time the water steams off and drips away, the mustard powder remaining is miniscule. If you want a mustard flavor, you will do much better by simply sprinkling it on the meat. I usually use water beacuse the components of the rub dissolve better in water than oil. Far more important is what is in the rub than under the rub. So use whatever you want for a slather.

Yeah I've never noticed a mustard flavor when I use it as a slather, I mainly use it so the rub sticks super well, but I might switch after reading that.

Good plan. Going to do about the same thing next weekend for a graduation party. Two shoulders about the same way. Good luck. Your timing sounds good by a wide margin. When done early, always the cooler/towel trick.

Any tips to cooking a flat brisket? I'm having trouble finding a whole brisket so I'll bother with that some other time.

Plan is mostly the same as I've done for pulled pork. Find some rub recipe, cook it at 225F until temp is around 203F and pull it to set for a couple hours. ?

Wouldn't you loving know it, I go to another costco and found this monster. Guess I'm doing a full 14 pounder for only about 3 people. :lol: Brisket all week.




Since imgur is being a poo poo, just imagine a whole brisket. :sigh:

You wrap the meat in butcher paper or foil then wrap it in towels then put it in an empty cooler and it will stay hot for hours.

I'm in aus and the closest Costco is about 150km (100ish miles) from me and one of my mates has a card so when he goes I get him to pick up a few racks of ribs. I have never seen such meaty pork ribs as the ones I get from there!! They're sensational.

Saving money you dont have or want to spend is a great reason to not get an egg. I just don't get the "but it could break" thing. Even with Santa Ana winds around me.

Not a competition though, man. Enjoy your BBQ.

I saw one of those giant egg knock offs at costco for $500 yesterday. I thought at first the handle was locked or something but no, the top is just that goddamn heavy. Holy poo poo. Seemed fairly nice for the price.

It's also great for holidays when you cook large family dinners. Cook up all the sides hours before, stack and tuck them away to serve later at dinner time and they will still be piping hot. Big stress saver.

Pour in some hot water for a half an hour to pre-heat things if you know you'll be holding something for a long while. Works great!

I have a few questions about WSM addons/mods:

- How do I do that thing where I can graph my meat/air temperature? I'm using a Thermoworks dual probe to monitor temp, but would like to see graphs especially for meat that's smoking overnight
- any good mods for temp control? Also related to wanting to smoke meat at night while I sleep

I have a 14.5, but there's an 18.5 coming as well

1) You need a thermometer unit capable of doing that

Well, I'm glad I started these two shoulders at 730pm last night. Just past 1030am here and am sitting at 176. I don't want to have to foil them.

Go pork go!

Edit: I am a sissy and bumped the smoker up to 250, if it doesn't flinch in the next hour or so, going to 275.

Edit 2: 250 got it moving again.

Wagyu Beef ribs done over ironbark - 8h

My housemate was in charge of the wrapping while I was busy in the afternoon and he misinterpreted me saying to wrap it and then put towels around it as just wrap it in towels. Still loving good even though they didn't get to sit in foil before I got to them :( next time I think I'll do them on a day that I'm not busy

^I'm sure the meat was pretty drat expensive. :( Not ruined I'm sure but that's unfortunate.

Just as a data point for anybody considering propane. I got about 37-38 hours of smoking out of a propane tank. First one I've used and luckily yesterday I got a spare refilled.

Oh you betcha. I saw 185ish when I woke up and figured that wasn't right so I moved the probe around. Sitting at 169 as we speak and it hasn't really moved since I woke up 4 hours ago.

Also, I had a dream where I woke up and my brisket was 220 degrees.

Not just stalling, but no barking. 4 hours and my tiny 1.5 pounder is dark but not black.

Should I chuck on more wood, or stoke what I have? Using oak and charcoal.

I made Mexican coke glazed beef ribs last weekend and they were amazing:



And yesterday I smoked a pork shoulder with oak and pecan. Had a real easy time maintaining temperature but the stall lasted a long, long time.





Edit: I also made beans, of course.
