Butts are very forgiving. It's better to start early and rest a bit longer in foil & cooler than be rushed imho. What you'll find is that hrs per lb is a good guideline yet the butts will be done when they're done. I just did two 9.5lb butts on Monday that went 15hrs at 225 before they were...
In this case you're going to end up hating Heros. The show was cancelled so no coherent ending, plus the last season that I remember was so disjointed it seemed the writers were just flinging storylines around willynilly with little thought to a main storyarc.
I can never seem to smoke on the weekend.. always too busy doing stuff with the little fella. I did do two 9.5lb butts yesterday.
15hrs on the smoker and a 3 hr rest in the cooler and it was dinner time!
Also did a can of bush's beans with half a can of SNPA added and simmered...
Was there even a season after that? I remember half heatedly watching the carny season wondering what on earth they did to that show. Then at some point I heard it had been canceled and said fark it.
I'm waiting for the post where you tell me you have no kids and you were playing with it.
I will then immediately declare my hetero-man-love for you and perhaps request a play date.
Just a fyi, it may depend on the plan. I'm on the share everything plan on Verizon with my wife and I having iphone 5's and 4GB of sharable data. It costs me nothing extra to enable and use personal hotspot on my iphone.
I have found however that personal hotspot is noticeably slower than...
One thing I didn't see in the replies above (it's possible I just missed it) is it's as easy to cook multiple butts as it is to cook a single one. I think I could easily fit four butts on by large BGE without getting a stacked rack. Just make sure that you have at least 2" of space between the...
I love my BGE. I haven't seen the Akorn you showed above in person but the product description lists it as steel with double walled insulation. That's a huge difference from a full ceramic cooker.
My guess is if you found two similar specced ceramic cookers, that they would perform...
These are absolutely fantastic. I've made them twice now and they disappear within minutes of coming off the egg. Some people like to put lil smokeys on these, I make em with a chunk of pulled pork on them instead. Tonights were topped with a little bit of homemade blackberry shack attack sauce
Did a couple of turkey legs for our lunch
Since the grill was already going, I threw on some ABT's.
They were delicious with some rasperberry shack sauce
Tried twice to harvest Conan from some Heady Topper. First time I used an sterile inoculation loop and tried to plate out from the dregs in the can. After 10 days I had zero growth on the plates. Second attempt I opened a can and poured off 90% into a glass in one clean pour. I then swirled...
I think pellets likely will continue to cut into the market for enthusiast but not for the average consumer. Most of my friends who have bbq's do so just to cook up burgers & dogs and maybe a steak here and there.. They have a $100 weber, or a $300 gasser. They don't care about smoking, or...
