Hmm... I may have to give this a try. I can always go for more bacon.
I already do my own belly bacon, but never with pork butt. It can sometimes be hit or miss whether I can find whole belly at the local Costco.

This thing showed up at my front door yesterday. I told the delivery guy he had the wrong address... wrongo. Bday present from my bros. So cool!

I'm jealous! I bought a 22" with the stand and lid to use for camping probably 6+ years ago. I love it! But I would love some more real estate to cook on . And you got the exact model I want. That's all I need. LOL! I didn't realize it held storage bins underneath.
Nice! My wife gave me one for my birthday this year. I posted about it as I was trying to decide gasser vs Blackstone to replace my Traeger, to go along my pair of big & little Kamado Joes.
Trying to decide tonight whether to cook some carne asada on this or the Big Joe. I'm thinking that the Blackstone might be preferable.
I froze a couple of ribeyes this weekend, then used a meat slicer to shave them thin. So, cheesesteaks are on the menu later in the week. This thing is pretty slick. I've made a bunch of stuff on it already.
It doesn't come with those bins. Blackstone does sell them ($55 each). Or you can go to Home Depot and get the HDX Tote 7 gallon for $7. Your call

More pics to come. But the start of a great weekend. 8th annual pigroast, 200 pounder on the home made smoker. And it's a tradition to have some cherries, with a little added kick.
I need to do a real smoke day soon but recently I did a couple quick and easy recipes for dinner. A pork tenderloin that only took a couple hours and a smoked meatloaf that took about 4 hours. Both were delicious!
Things to consider if you don’t have time for pork butts or brisket.

Got a new (to me) 22" Weber kettle that my brother got me from Facebook marketplace for $10!! Heckuva deal and a few patient hours of cleaning has me ready to break it in this weekend. 8# pork butt is thawed and ready 
it's parked next to my 18" kettle

I will be smoking some baby back ribs today on the Ninja Woodfire grill. Bachan's Japanese BBQ sauce as a binder, Meat Church's Holy Gospel rub and Kona Wood Hickory pellets. Maybe finish with Baby Ray's, maybe not. Good times!
Smoked this piggy for 16 hours, best one we've done so far, 8th annual pigroast. We've done a few for some friends as well. Pic of final product and a before pic for size. I'm 6foot 195, he was 200. Blurred my shirt as to keep the politics out of it, and yes that's in my master bathtub.
Could have done a cleaner version of blurring your shirt, otherwise looks awesome!
I can hear my wife yelling now. I don’t think she’d be cool w a whole pig in our tub.
Looks delicious!
Haha, it was fantastic. My wife took that picture actually. But yes I was on immediate clean up duty once we moved it to the smoker. We usually use a galvanized trough and cover it with ice in that but it was occupied and I didn't feel like buying another one. My buddy almost dropped it on our bedroom carpet (off white) when we carried it outside, if that had happened I'd be posting this in the don't do that thread.
I don't think that's entirely sanitary.
No bathtub in this photo. Sorry?
The second picture of you cuddling up in the tub was a little disturbing but really funny!
He was completely wrapped in cellophane, numerous times. I just peeled open the top for the Pic so you could see him smile. Promise I didn't use my urine to sanitize the area.
This and the pizza threads are the best! Don't get me wrong, the beer talk is great too but what a perfect marriage with beer!
Don't forget about the bread thread. All helping me in my quest to become 400lbs.
YES! I forgot that one, bad me.
I'm using this recipe today! I only have two pounds of pork belly though as it's my first time trying to cook it.View attachment 856550View attachment 856551View attachment 856552View attachment 856553View attachment 856554View attachment 856555Smoked Pork Belly Burnt Ends (followed this recipe loosely) and a smoked turkey breast for dinner tonight.
Wife's cousin did a brisket yesterday and it was great.
I just rubbed down 3 racks of ribs for this evening. With this damn keto diet there will be no sauce just dry, but that works for me.

Smoked a whole chicken from Crowd Cow on the Ninja Woodfire grill. Used Kona Sweetwood pellets, Bachan's Yuzu BBQ sauce as a binder, and Meat Church's Holy Voodoo rub. Most excellent!
I was thinking the same thing regarding the exorbinant prices from the online butcher's. I'll make a select cut sing at $40 vs a Black Waygu for $150

Beef jerky.

I like how cherry wood makes poultry look, so tomorrow I'm going to try making a chicken with apple wood pellets, but a few chunks of cherry in the solid fuel drawer. Wonder if it'll take on that cherry look?
