    Who's smoking meat this weekend?

    picnic are fine for pulled pork. if you don't want to do a whole butt (aka shoulder). Boston butt is a cut from the shoulder too, and smaller than whole butt. You can always cut a butt in half or 1/4 to reduce the size too. However leftover pulled pork is easy to freeze.

    Can anyone recommend a good string trimmer?

    Who's smoking meat this weekend?

    What did I cook this weekend.....

    I didn't probe it to find out. I did wrap in foil around the 3.5 hour. I also smoke in the 300-325 range. The first 1/2 inch was defrosted, however the two butts were still frozen together. When I foiled, they had shrunk enough to separate on their own.

    Deciding on a bourbon...

    TN whiskey is bourbon, with an extra step (charcoal filtering). Producers choose not to label their product as a bourbon to help differentiate themselves from bourbon (even though they meet the legal definition of bourbon). "Following the guidelines for making Bourbon, utilizing the Lincoln...

    Deciding on a bourbon...

    JD is bourbon, all TN whiskeys are. They just use the lincoln county process (an extra filter through maple charcoal before continuing in the traditional bourbon process). You're using very little bourbon for soaking, doubt it will make much difference in final beer. So buy what you or your...
