Ribs were great but for whatever reason my pulled pork turned out drier Then usual
Quite disappointed since pulled pork is pretty much dummy proof

I made a killer leftover turkey pasta salad the other day that I brought to a friends' who smoked a brisket for 18 hours on his Broil King Keg. I don't take enough pics of my meals... I enjoy cooking to unwind from the daily grind. Oh, and alcohol too. I'm known crack some beer or wine while I work...... after work :p

Did you get a bone in or out pork butt? I find when I get a bone out its more dry and doesnt taste as good.

can you guys recommend me a good BBQ for smoking / BBQing?

It looks like mine has shit the bed finally, heat shield is fucked and the burners are uneven.

godwin 07-29-2013 09:42 PM

Any Kamodo style cooker (Green Egg, Little Keg etc).. would be fine... if you like charcoal... I think those are the best for dual use smoking and BBQ.

The point about BBQ is not about the stainless steel cladding but about the amount of metal (weight) those the main cooking vessels have.

BBQ has got to be one of the easiest thing to manufacturer.. the working theory is simple, the tolerance required is rough at best.

Sorry, to clarify. Looking for propane.

EDIT: Holy shit, looking at those Kamodos....expensive as fuck.

how much are you looking to spend? in all reality any BBQ will work with buying a smoker box to put in your bbq when you want to smoke.

punkwax 07-30-2013 03:53 PM

Kamado grills are worth every penny and will be my next purchase when my BBQ dies. Friend has the Broil King Keg and it's magically delicious.

pintoBC_3sgte 08-17-2013 12:23 PM

Been a busy summer , haven't had time to smoke anything lately, but I managed to find time to do another batch of candied salmon

Salmon in the brine
http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2810/9...5012b07b_c.jpg

Decided to add a new character into the mix.. Pure maple sugar. Added 1/2 C to the brine mix.
http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5486/9...0e27ae4e_c.jpg

Out of the brine and let dry a bit
http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2882/9...2739c86c_c.jpg

Done smoking. brushed a mixture of maple syrup and maple sugar onto it while it smoked.
http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2809/9...d31b060e_c.jpg

Turned out great!
http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5459/9...3349518d_c.jpg

Wish I had done a bigger batch! oh well... next time :)

murd0c 08-17-2013 01:13 PM

wow that looks great

pintoBC_3sgte 08-17-2013 05:20 PM

Thanks :)

murd0c 08-18-2013 04:25 PM

Who did I sell the Bradley Smoker to again? I forgot and have been wondering

supafamous 08-19-2013 08:22 PM

Just caught this thread for the first time and I've got a couple smoked items to share:

Prime Rib: Instagram

Did two 4.5lb prime ribs for about 3 hours. They were dry brined for a couple days in advance with salt and then rubbed with World Spice Market's Bar-H Beef Rub and smoked over cherry wood. This one was more cooked than the other one. Guests said it was the best beef they've ever had.

Pork Roast: Instagram

5lbs with the rind stuffed with apricots and onions over cherry wood. A bit too smoky but so moist on the inside.
