    Ahh, that makes sense. If time allows, I'll definitely give the resting a go. I do have a probe that I use for temp readings. It's invaluable. The times stated earlier are just a reference of the time that it usually takes to reach 200-205deg. I usually do butts at a grill temp of about...

    I don't use boards for this. The meat will be pulled so I use a bowl and pour on the sauce. No runnings what so ever. But, I'll give this a try next time. I'm a little pressed for time today so I probably will not have the extra hour or so. Thanks for the input.

    Yes. I'm hoping around 7:30-8:00. But it's not ready until it's ready. I usually cook 'em for about 14 hours but this was kind of spur of the moment. I'm keeping it a little hotter than I normally do to try to speed it up a little. I usually put 'em on before I go to bed and serve for lunch...

    Really? I've heard of resting a steak but never pork. What does it accomplish?

    Boston Butt today

    Just popped it on the grill about three hours ago. There is a mist in the air today coupled with a light rain every now and again. The smell is really hanging around. It smells sooo good. I can't wait to dig in. Should be ready about 7:00. I've got a small hunk of hickory and a medium...

    I know, I was just giving you a little poke.:D I agree with your assessment on the 'Skins. I'll reserve my judgment on the 'Boys until after they play the Gmen, as I'm of the opinion that the Bucks are not that good. BTW, I would question any Cowboys fan's commitment if he didn't say eff...

    Another freaked out noob

    Check you hydrometer in plain water. If it reads 1.00 then it is reading properly. If not, then you know the culprit. Just add or subtract the difference every time you take a reading. That's all I got. I'm sure that your beer will turn out fine irregardless.

    Another freaked out noob

    Hydrometers are also calibrated for reading at a certain temperature. If you take a reading at a different temperature than it is calibrated for, you will have to adjust your reading accordingly. The instructions that came with you hydrometer should explain how to do this. If not, a quick...

    Glass blown equipment your thoughts

    That bank of tap handles looks oh so nice. I might be interested in some of those.

    Where is the 5 gal. mark on a glass carboy?

    Best way to find out is to measure out five gallons and pour it in and mark it. In my experience, five gallons is pretty close to the bottom of the neck. I believe most use six gallon carboys for this reason (I do). With a blow off, you should be fine.

    Obnoxious Football Trash Talk Thread

    Well said. As much as I like to root against McNabb, I felt bad for him when those guys rolled on him in the end zone yesterday. BTW, isn't it time to change your avatar? I like this one: :D edit: that was quick, I see great minds think alike

    Cutler tried his best to screw me. Thought that I was going to end up with -10 or worse next to his name. Pleasant surprise with Carlson though.:)
