7 racks last night over Mesquite and Apple wood

the roast was high heat smoke roasted with cherry wood and charcoal. nutshell.... we put the meat (rubbed with onion powder, salt, pepper, and ground chipolte) on thick slices of onions in a foil pan added IPA to the pan just up to the bottom of the roast. the outside was nice and crusty and the inside was juicy and flavorful.
 
Packed the WSM and all my toys up to take it up north to some friends' cabin. Our hosts are bringing a ham from a pig they bought, and we'll throw that on the WSM with apple wood smoke tomorrow or Saturday. (We smoked the other ham back May and it was AWESOME! Perfectly cured - not too salty, not "hammy" at all, perfect texture)
 
hey we just picked up a big eye of round roast yesterday. any tips?

Eye of round is pretty tasty but very lean. Dust it with mix of 80% garlic salt, 10% black pepper, and 10% onion powder. 2 tasty cooking options.

1. after rubbing stick on smoker @ 250 is until it hits 135-140, let rest 15-30 minutes depending on size then slice thin on the bias and serve on a nice onion roll with some horseradish sauce.
2. Wrap it in bacon and cook till it hits 155. Slice thin and serve with sauce of choice.
 
I am smoking 25lbs of pork butt and 10lbs of Italian sausage tomorrow for a family gathering.
 
Found these in the clearance rack this afternoon -- country style pork ribs. Rubbed with salt, pepper, garlic, brown sugar. smoked 2.5 hours.

Got 2 racks of baby backs smoking, will move to the oven, then finish on the charcoal with some Bratwursts.
 
Have you ever tried smoking the brats? I did it a couple of weeks ago and they were great. They dont take too long either.

I smoked a couple chicken breasts this morning to take to work and threw a couple hot dogs on for lunch and the hot dogs turned out awesome so I'm sure brats would be amazing
 
currently looking through the local ads to see what I feel like throwing it he smoker today. It's a beautiful 74 degree day here in CT. Great opportunity to get some hickory smoke in the air and enjoy some beer!

Debuting the new smoker. Got a rack of baby backs and a chicken in there on applewood. Excited for dinner.
 
So after reading this thread for some time, I will finally be smoking, for the first time, a Boston Butt. I'm am going to use a basic rub and was wondering which wood would be better for a basic rub. I have access to Hickory and Mesquite and wanted to try one of those before branching out.

Thanks for the suggestions
