Smoker is rockin'
« on: February 07, 2009, 04:53:17 AM »
I think I've got the perfect recipe going for this evening.

7 lbs of brisket and 6.5 lbs of pork shoulder now going on the smoker.
A buddy is bringing over some fresh sourdough (makes a great pulled pork sammich  ;D).
Add a beer or two and we're set!

PETA can kiss my butt...  I love eatin on some dead critter!

At my house animals have rights to a good brine and a sit in the old smoker. They get the final farewell in the whirlpool.  People Eatin Tasty Animals is part of our household tradition!!

Westbound, you are talking my language. Brisket, ribs and pork shoulder are the things culinary dreams are made of. I like 225 degrees and mesquite wood. What are your guys favorite woods?

And for the last hour and a half before serving, I like to throw a big pan of Bush's  baked beans with a little BBQ sauce and some sliced up onion and let them catch the drippings and take on a little smoke. Serve it up with some cole slaw and pickles.

Wow the winter needs to go away here in MN.

I like maple if it's gonna be more than 4 hours- like a brisket, the other stronger woods like cherry get to be too much if smoked too long. Beef short ribs- marinated in pepsi- smoked for 3 hours over cherry and maple- It don't get better than that!

I like to smoke it with cherry and the last hour before it is done I wrap it in foil with a little apple juice and let it bake right in the smoker,always keeps it from getting to dry.
Now who has a good dry rub recipe. :D
Thank God for the woods and the critters that inhabit them

Best commercial rub is Cooper's from Llano.
Best commercial BBQ is Cooper's or Blacks from Luling-Lochart area.

I used a dry rub of my own making.  I'll post it up this evening (it's written down at home, I'm at work).
The brisket turned out great.  The pork missed dinner time.  It finally decided to get done around 11 Saturday night.
Its getting served up for dinner tonight, with another ice cold beer  ;D

When I get home, I'll post up a couple of recipes.  We can get a thread going... "The Ultimate Handi-shooter Carnivore Cookbook"

I could sure go for some nice BBQed ribs, especially ones with lots of good chewy cartilage.

Until you try pepsi for marinade-
   You aint seen nothin yet!
 The acid in cola (coke works too) the meat is fork tender. Try it- short ribs, chuck roast.

I like to smoke with either hard maple or beech.  I also use a little cherry now and then.  I just ran into a motherload of free maple sugar from the old ladys mom.  Plan on using it for rubs and dry brining.  The pepsi and coke marinades sound great.  If you are planning to grill or smoke chicken buy three 40 oz'ers of beer, use one to pour over the chicken with the juice of a lemon or two about a 1/4 cup of salt and equal brown sugar soak for at least 8 hours, overnight is better.  Then drink the other two while smoking or grilling.  It makes the juciest chicken you've ever had.  But if you like beer like me, you might want to buy more that 2 extra big one's or you might be eyeballing the brine!!!
