What are you smoking tomorrow?

I'm getting up at 3am to start a pork butt. Hoping to pull the butt around 2 and smoke wings and ABT's for an hour.

The butt will be pulled and served with a home made honey barbecue sauce. The wings will be glazed with a home made Pineapple Habanero sauce.

Sides will be baked beans and potato salad. I'm going to serve the pulled pork slider style and use Kings Hawaiian rolls instead of buns.

Why get up at 3:00am cook at 275 a 7 lb butt will be done in six to seven hours. Wrap when IT is 150* and take it home to 195* you will love it. I will be cooking ribs on the Jambo @ 275 they will be done in four the best ribs I have ever cooked 😜

Do you think it will cook that fast at 275? The last one I did at 225 and it took almost 12 hours. I was planning to do this one at 275, I do almost everything at 275 now.

At 275 in 4 hours the meat should be at at 155 and wrap until 195 and let rest. I cook all my briskets and butts at 275* done in 6 to 7 hours. Try you will like it

3 hrs in and it's already 155!
Thats ok if it has a mahogany color wrap it if not let it go a little while longer. Don't worry if it gets done early leave in the foil and wrap with a towel it will stay hot for hours. One more thing when it is done remove it from the smoker open the foil so it will vent and stop cooking for a few minutes then wrap it back up and let it rest. If you don't you will over cook it. :thumbup:

205. Temp probe slid like in butter. I think it was 10.5 lbs. 5 hours
Check your grate temp next time you have your smoker on it maybe running a little hot. 10 lb i would think more like 6 hrs but you never know they do what they want

I always inject the night before back in the fridge until about 20 minutes before it goes on rub it and on the smoker. Sometimes they cook faster you never know. I hope you saved the drippings in the foil for a dip. Was it good ?

Burnt ends rocked. Flat was a bit dry but very tender. I have to try injection.

ImageUploadedByTapatalk1378174740.103428.jpg The wings were popular.

The pulled pork was served on a Kings Hawaiian Roll. I put a little honey barbecue sauce on top of the pork and topped it all off with some home made slaw. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1378174952.552543.jpg

I've recently started experimenting with my own barbecue sauces. Ill never buy the stuff in a bottle from the store again.

I smoked a 5 lb. prime rib at 250* for about 3 1/2 hours until it got to 150* internal temp. Came out perfect.:thumbup:
