I finally gave up on my smoker and decided to get a new smoker. I went with a bigger model but less tech. Yes, its a cheater electric smoker. My 3rd one. I need more space to cook, I don't need help getting my smoke and temp right. :-)
I've also never used injection for flavor except for pork butt or other big cuts of meat. I decided to give it a try. I developed my own injection. Basically like the other recipes you have out on the internet but I'm putting the rub in the injection and using sirracchi.
Full results not in yet but my son and I think its the best sausage we have ever had.
No sauce. Marinated the meat overnight. Injected the meat. Slow cooked the ribs and chicken. Baste it with a combo of butter and apple juice. Using a combination of Apple, Mesquite, Cherry and Hickory wood.

350lb lighter than stock Kingsman? The Witchita is $1750 plus wheels... So I may have overbid? [Reply]
Thinking of doing a couple pork butts for Father's day. Haven't ever wrapped before but the stall has been a real pain. Any opinions on wrapping or not. In my experience it doesn't need it for moisture but I'm wondering how much it helps with the stall or damages the bark. I have both butcher paper and aluminum foil.

I just finished watching Lesson #3 of Aaron Franklin's Masterclass and he wrapped his pork butt for the final 2 hours of cook, then let it rest for almost an hour [Reply]
Yesterdays offering. Slab of ribs, 4 chicken thighs and a pork butt. Didn't get a good money muscle on the butt so I was a little disappointed but it pulled nicely. It actually got to temp after 10 hrs. I was figuring 12 hrs. I let it rest for 2 hrs. I felt like it was a to charred but my dang spray bottle would spray the spritz so I couldn't keep it from happening unless I wrapped it early. The ribs were sweat with the late heat. Chicken skin wasn't bite through but it was good. I didn't really scrap the fat off the skin because it's to much work.
